Analyzing Leather Material Used In Common Metals Jewelry Making

Leather metal jewelry is the main research object of this paper,where the jewelry takes natural leather and metal as the material and carrier,adopts the basic design method of structure,shape and color,takes the processing technology of decoration and adopts the convey means of meaning and form.The materials in jewelry design are the carrier for a designer to convey the design concept.They are carrying the designer's thinking.As the main carrier of leather metal jewelry,leather possesses the properties of natural material,without the conclusion of simple nostalgic emotion by a single leather material.Leather has very broad plasticity.However,leather and metal have larger differences chemical properties.Very obvious limitations will be shown if these two materials are combined together in an innovative way.The jewelries with low-cost materials,like acrylic,glass,copper and wood are becoming hot options in market.Currently,there are very few research projects on leather metal jewelry,while there are many topics on leather art products.An old saying goes that "jewelry is like a mini sculpture".Before shaping,the properties of the mud texture must be controlled in addition to the target effect of imaging and constructing the shapes.So this paper is carried out around the analysis and combing of the natural properties of leather and the chemical features of metal.There are two question,one is it any of decorations are suited for all of materials?two is how to make the leather and matel resonable by some rational visual sense.By referring to the expression form of modern jewelry taking material as the carrier,the traditional technology of leather carving and leather art,cold processing technology metal jewelry as well as related books and literatures,the paper also incorporates the practical experience to maximize advantages and minimize disadvantages.The paper also explores the benchmark of the expression forms of a variety of leather metal jewelries,expands innovative thinking,and obtains the basic methods of designing new leather metal jewelry.
