Tao
Tao is a jewellery collection inspired by the traditional Chinese Taichi pattern. The collection includes bangles, earrings, a necklace and a ring. Through spatial thinking, the Taichi pattern is deconstructed into several structures that can be worn in different ways. An axle allows half of the earring to rotate 180 degrees, so the round form becomes a long earring. Silicone stoppers inside the necklace make the chain adjustable, and a buckle turns the necklace into a short double chain. The pieces are made of brass with silver or 24k gold plating.
Tao Jewellery Collection by Xiaoqian Wang has been selected as a grand example of fashion design by the A' Design Awards. Tao Jewellery Collection earned the Bronze A' Design Award in Jewelry Design in 2021. The A' Jewelry Design Award is a highly prestigious, international, juried design prize which honors excellent design of rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, brooches, pendants, cufflinks, anklets and more.
