The Influence of Aesthetics and Apparent Usability on Jewelry Design Preference

Over the last two decades scholars have studied the relationship between product usability and consumer purchase intentions. It has been established that perceived usability is valuable for predicting intentions to purchase water bottles, kitchen appliances, smart devices, etc., but there has been little research on the role of usability in jewelry purchase decisions. Product aesthetics is also an important factor in consumers’ purchasing decisions; aesthetics creates attraction, evokes emotions and satisfaction in shoppers. This article aims to investigate the role of aesthetics and usability in jewelry purchasing decisions in India. A survey of 194 potential jewelry customers was undertaken, with respondents asked for their opinions on six product concepts for handmade glass pendants. Our results show that aesthetics, usability and willingness to purchase handmade glass pendants are strongly and significantly related to each other. When correlation and multiple regression analysis were performed on the survey data, it was found that both usability and aesthetics positively influence purchase intention. This study finds that aesthetics and apparent usability are both valuable predictors for purchase intention of glass pendants. Keywords: Aesthetics, Craft, Design, Apparent usability, Craft cluster

From Image to Imagination: Exploring the Impact of Generative AI on Cultural Translation in Jewelry Design

The current proliferation of artificial intelligence (AI) is prominently shaping the design industry. Generative AI, such as text-to-image and image-to-image models, has gained widespread use, notably for its efficiency and quality improvements. However, their potential to aid in cultural translation within creative design is underexplored. To address the existing gap, this study aims to assess the impact of generative AI on cultural translation within jewelry design. Specifically, a comprehensive study was conducted through a design-action experiment, collecting 46 student designers’ design-action data and self-reports, and enlisting the evaluation from 30 design experts. The findings highlight the substantial influence of generative AI on the ideation phase of jewelry design, especially in depth rather than breadth, and in the shape factor at the technical level such as detailization and unexpected composition. Leveraging AI image generators has shifted the designer’s focus from technical tasks to strategic decisions related to visual appeal, cognitive engagement, and emotional resonance. Furthermore, the challenges inherent in human–AI collaboration have been revealed, stemming from communication difficulties and the risk of fixating on specific details to stylistic constraints. Based on data analysis, a novel hybrid model regarding human–AI co-creation on cultural translation in jewelry design is proposed. Overall, this current study offers a valuable reference point to future research in terms of examining the effect of emerging technologies on cultural translation in creative fields.

The Integration and Design of Green Concept in Jewelry under the Background of Information Technology

Abstract This paper first integrates the green concept into jewelry design from three aspects of jewelry materials, modeling and production process, and demonstrates the jewelry 3D printing technology in line with the green concept in the context of information technology and analyzes its technical process. Then, based on the PCA method and the point cloud data of space lattice, the three-dimensional normal estimation of jewelry is carried out, the three-dimensional reconstruction and cavity repair of jewelry is carried out through the triangular mesh model, and the complete output of the jewelry model in STL format is carried out, and the STL fast slicing is carried out. Finally, the effects of 3D modeling, slicing efficiency, and jewelry design are analyzed through numerical simulation experiments. The results show that the standard deviation of the error in the x-direction σ =0.16um, expectation μ =−0.007um, the standard deviation of the error in the y-direction σ =0.08um, expectation μ =0.003um, and the standard deviation of the error in the z-direction σ =0.28um, expectation μ =−0.001um, with a variation range of (−0.028, 0.028), in the three-dimensional modeling of jewelry. Compared with the traditional slicing algorithm, this paper’s slicing efficiency of jewelry is improved by (0.26, 0.45), when the production quantity is more than 500 pieces, in terms of the cost of the traditional production method is more advantageous.

Optimising Amber Processing Using 3D Scanning: New Perspectives in Cultural Heritage

This article aims to present the practical and functional application of advanced 3D scanning technologies in the process of designing products made of amber. The processing of amber is complex and expensive because mass or serial production is not possible. Moreover, processing is challenging because each product is treated as unique and requires individual handling. The optimisation process is illustrated using the example of amber blocks that were scanned to obtain virtual 3D models. The scope of this work includes the characterisation of three-dimensional jewellery design processes, along with a description of a wide range of methods and functions used in computer-aided jewellery design. The use of computer-aided design software for developing virtual models of decorative products used in goldsmithing is described in this paper. The obtained sets of models underwent engineering analysis using Boolean algebra and data science calculations. In this way, a design methodology was developed regarding the selection of input material as the unprocessed stone for jewellery modelling. The developed method allows for the minimisation of material waste, which is associated with reducing costs in the processing of amber. This article also describes the differences between previous traditional methods and the authors’ proprietary method. The proposed methodology can be implemented in jewellery workshops specialising in the processing of materials.

THE USE OF COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN SYSTEMS IN THE WORK OF AN ARTIST-DESIGNER OF JEWELRY

The article deals with the issue of a set of technical requirements for the design project of a jewelry. Unlike graphic design, which does not require the implementation of the project in the material, jewelry design can be considered realized only if the product is manufactured or can be successfully implemented without loss of artistic and figurative characteristics. An emotionally colored creative process is inextricably linked with an engineering and intellectual approach to problem solving, including the preparation of design documentation. The use of a three-dimensional design system in the creation of jewelry and art products not only accelerates the process of design implementation of the idea, but also helps to transfer these ideas into industrial production as accurately and technically as possible.
