ITALU-YA.OrdermadeHistory No.089:The brooch of a dragonfly
In Japan, the dragonfly was made into the living thing (he follows before a dragonfly "is determined") which flies only in front, was called 勝虫[KACHI-MUSHI], and was liked by the samurai especially with the good-luck article for many years.The portion of feather is spaced and took out the light transparent feeling of the shuttlecock of an insect.The portion of eyes is made into the accent using copper.It is caught and can just be going to be easy to take the feather from which becoming anxious at the time of practical use projects in the case of a living thin with feather.In order to clear such intensity, a core stick is taken out from the Nemoto part of feather, and the tension is inserted [ applying it ] and welded to the body.Another important point of a brooch or a pin brooch is in weight.The device for a weight saving was considered in the form of the body, and structure also including the watermark of feather.The natural beauty of the height of the natural flight accuracy of a dragonfly, bodily structure, and weight balance was felt anew.
日本では古くからとんぼは前にしか飛ばない（蜻蛉は前しか進まない「不退転」）生き物とし勝虫と言われ縁起物で特に武士に好まれました。羽の部分は透かして昆虫の羽根の軽い透明感を出すようにしました。目の部分は銅を使いアクセントとしています。羽のある生き物の場合、実用時に心配になるのが突起している羽が引っかかって取れやすいところです。その様な強度をクリアするため羽の根本部から芯棒を出し胴体にテンションをかけて差し込んで溶接しています。ブローチやピンブローチのもう一つの大事な点は重さにあります。羽の透かしも含め胴体の形、構造に軽量化の為の工夫を考えました。自然のトンボの飛行精度の高さ、身体構造、重量バランスの自然美を改めて感じました。
