3D Jewelry for men's by Atoms

Bits to Atoms is a range of bespoke men's jewelry produced using additive manufacturing techniques whereby each piece is laser sintered together particle by particle, layer by layer. Available in Black or Transparent Acrylic based photopolymer, each piece has a unique layered, felt-like texture from the production process. Bronze infused Stainless Steel & Alumide pieces have a tessellated slightly pitted texture. All jewelry is designed in Australia using parametric 3D modeling software then 3D printed in the Netherlands to order.

An intricate stainless steel pendant featuring a network of intricate veins that radiate from its center. The pattern was grown in our computer simulation of leaf venation and etched from a sheet of stainless steel. The necklace comes with an 18" sterling silverchain.

Reticulate, meaning net-like, describes the complex branching patterns that govern the veins in leaves of most flowering plants. Tiny tertiary veins interconnect the thick primary and secondary ones to create a redundant system for the transportation of water, sugars, and nutrients.

This necklace is available in unfinished stainless steel or stainless steel plated with black chromium (nickel-free). Please specify which finish you would like in the comment box when you order. If none is specified, you will receive a stainless steel necklace.

Thin curves radiate from a central root to form an expansive network in this striking stainless steel pendant plated with 24kt gold. The pendant hangs from an 18" gold fill chain.

The piece is a part of our Algae line, a collection of computer generated branching forms that explores the cycles of growth and bifurcation seen in plants.

Construction : Raw brass cuff. Casts of two Victorian era keyholes in bronze oxidized and soldered. Key holes were cut out with a coping saw. You can see through both.

Original hand carved small wren soldered to antique salvaged clock gear skull cast in bronze and soldered to cuff. The bird skull was set with two 6mm AA grade deep red Orissa garnets.

Cuff is 1 1/2 inches wide.3.8 cm It is comfortable on a wrist up to 7 inches around 17.8 cm.

This is an original street design I have been making for about four years. This is a limited edition as they are a lot of handwork and I don't intend to make many of them.

The piece is done in brass and given a archival wax treatment on the inside. I will provide you with care and cleaning instruction.

The cuff will tarnish and patina in really nicely if don't polish it. Burners, alkaline in the playa dust did great things to mine.

Rings with a secret...

A poison ring or pillbox ring is a type of ring with a container under the bezel or inside the bezel itself that could be used to hold poison or another substance. They became popular in Europe during the sixteenth century.  The poison ring was used either to slip poison into an enemy's food or drink, or to facilitate the suicide of the wearer in order to escape capture or torture.

Rings like this have been used throughout history to carry perfume, locks of hair, devotional relics, messages and other keepsakes, so they have also been known by other names. Artists would paint tiny portraits of loved ones, to be carried in what was called a “locket ring,” which was popular during the Renaissance. By the 17th century, jewelers were creating locket rings in the shape of caskets which served as mementos for mourners. These were called “funeral rings.” Rings with compartments are also called “box” rings or “socket” rings.

The Origin of Poison Rings According to Marcy Waldie, who wrote about poison rings in the October 2001 article “A Ring to Die For: Poison Rings Hold Centuries of Secrets,” from Antiques & Collecting Magazine, this type of jewelry originated in ancient days of the Far East and India. It replaced the practice of wearing keepsakes and other items in pouches around the neck. 

The wearing of vessel rings was so practical that it spread to other parts of Asia, the Middle East and the Mediterranean before reaching Western Europe in the Middle Ages. By then the rings were part of the “holy relic trade.”
