Everything starts with a sketch. You need to know the material and technological possibilities. As Joseph and Veronica say, they motivate each other and together they create a space for innovation and creativity.
Bushido ring was created as a combination of modern design and masterful craftsmanship. After an initial idea and sketch, the ring is modelled in 3D and successively printed as a wax model. This model is later inserted into plaster and mould is created. The ring is created during the process of the silver casting during which wax is burned and melted and liquid silver is poured into a mould and is left to set until it hardens. The liquid silver set takes on the form of the shaped mould.
The casting of metal is argued to be the first true metalworking skill. Cast items are handmade resulting in fine and delicate detail.
After the silver cools and solidifies, each piece is cleaned and polished to remove imperfections. Small plate made of damascene steel is added on top. Signs from the Code of Bushido are coloured using resin.
