This weekend at the Renegade Craft Fair in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, we spotted an interesting line of jewelry generated from rapid prototyping technology. Named Nervous System, the pieces were created by Jessica Rosenkrantz and Jesse Louis-Rosenburg — both former students at MIT (appropriately enough) who studied in the fields of Architecture, Biology and Mathematics.

The jewelry — completely constructed using 3d printing technology, and titled with names such as lamina, dendrite and radiolaria — take inspiration from organic structures. Many of their pieces are generated from algorithmic processes and even allow you to customize your own pieces of jewelry through their website.

Inspiration to make things better.

  1. There work is crap, I got the 2 layer ring and bracelets and it brakes easily

  2. Hi, this is the designer. I just did a kind of stress test on the rings, squeezing them very hard, throwing them on the ground, etc, and I only managed to break a ring after stepping on it twice. I’m curious how you broke the ring. If you would like a refund, please contact us.

  3. Hello! I am a happy owner of an intricate dendrite brooch, I think it is beautiful and I love the concept. I got it at Strangelets all the way here in Singapore!
