The Machines Collection - Ode to Technology
Nothing has changed the world as much as the Industrial Revolution. Working cogs, intricate systems, transmission systems and centers of gravity made us dependent on their growling, purring and tapping. At the same time, the momentum of development gradually devoured its no longer useful children, and old technologies and mechanisms were doomed to oblivion. It was Anna Orska in the MACHINES collection that gave her attention and reached to them. The designer's variations on the subject of screws introduce into a mechanized but also sentimental reality with robotic characters. MACHINES symbolize a world suspended in space-time, in which futurological visions once lost their luster of freshness and innovation. The collection encourages careful contemplation of the metallic beauty of technology.
Machines
Nothing has changed the world as much as the Industrial Revolution. Complex machines made us dependent on their growling, purring and tapping. At the same time, the momentum of development gradually devoured its no longer useful children, and old technologies and mechanisms were doomed to oblivion. It was these seemingly forgotten elements that became the main characters of the MACHINES collection. Jewelers' variations on the subject of screws introduce a mechanized yet sentimental reality with robotic characters. They bring to the fore inconspicuous elements that usually work unnoticed. What has mechanized many processes over the centuries has once again become the subject of handwork.
The Industrial Revolution changed the world of our ancestors, and the technological revolution has shaped our reality. Nuts and bolts connected the elements that built almost every object that facilitates our daily life. These inconspicuous-looking components, hidden under showy housings, usually perform their role in a secretive manner. They don't draw attention, tirelessly and discreetly working to keep everything running like clockwork. In the Machines collection, we took them out of hiding and brought them to the fore. Using screws, we constructed objects of desire: striking necklaces, personalized bracelets and simple, industrial earrings. In our characteristic way, we reinterpreted the technology, bringing to the fore what usually remains invisible to the eyes. In the jewelry workshop, individual elements have created a completely new quality. What has mechanized many processes over the centuries has once again become the subject of handwork. Jewelry from the Machines collection adds a human face to technology and with a touch of humor makes it more approachable.
The Machines Collection – Tales of Robots
The ORSKA workshop created a mechanical family, which is our futuristic fantasy. Man creates robots and constantly improves them. They take on the most diverse forms and perform different functions. Who knows, maybe in the future the robots created today will pair up and create their own communities?
Meet Cogie, a robot created from brass elements with an industrial character. Cogie is accompanied by Screwie, a friendly female robot in a graphite or golden dress. The original team is completed by a robotic cat. The pendants formed long necklaces on ball chains and keyrings, which will be perfect as key ornaments.
The Machines Collection – Assemblies
We replace the machines that serve us more often than we should. Abandoned, useless devices, or rather their interiors, caught our attention. We approached them in a playful way, treating the individual components like building blocks from which further constructions can be assembled. Assemblies, is a small series of necklaces with original pendants, which are the result of creative play. Geometric, simple elements made of brass and silver, put together in human-inspired shapes, resemble forgotten companions of everyday adventures. They also add a more human face to technology. The personification of Assemblies allows for a softer and more sensitive look at metal mechanisms.
The Machines Collection – Personalized bracelets
The most important things are created at the intersection of technology and human touch. A perfect example is the handmade bracelets from the Machines collection, which are decorated with inscriptions stamped to a specific order. Personalized bracelets are made specifically for the people who will wear them. The simple, technical nature of the letters and numbers refers to the industrial style of the collection and harmonizes with the strict minimalism of the design. Thanks to the personal nature of the bracelets, they will work perfectly as a gift. The jewelry can also be a souvenir of a successful vacation, important meetings or anniversaries. If you would like to give a loved one a gift that will remind them of the place and date of your first meeting, or jewelry with important coordinates to a person going out into the world, leave us a comment when finalizing your order.
