Moving parts and essential organization

Organizing glass pieces for our Kinetic Deco Dagger necklace

At Broken Plates, our sculptural glass wearables are created by stacking multiple pieces of water jet cut glass. These are very specifically shaped and have to be assembled in a particular order with expert precision. With hundreds of different shapes, it is essential for an efficient production that we organize the shapes according to which style they belong to before we assemble them.

This results in our sculptural and kinetic statement jewelry that plays with form and light, using repetition to create their three-dimensional forms. Check out some of our favorites!
