Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of manufacturing goldsmith network structures as well as goldsmith network structures obtained with such method.
  • the currently used manufacturing methods provide that coupling is accomplished by placing a plurality of necklaces in substantially parallel fashion, optionally connecting them either at the ends thereof where closures are attached, or at the central portion thereof where lockets are placed.
  • EP-A-0 495 100 discloses a metallic mesh for ornamental goods in which a large number of metallic wires are step to randomly intersect with each other.
  • GB-A-2 294 863 describes an item of jewellery comprising a frame network and meshed items of jewellery and a net supported on the frame and formed by strings of pearls.
  • US-A-3 742 730 discloses a frame network formed by strings of pearls/beads.
  • the present invention is aimed at conceiving a method of manufacturing of goldsmith network structures starting from simple chains arranged in single or multiple lines in such a manner to confer to the whole structure a new and varied aspect, and which is at the same time particularly light and elegant.
  • a method of manufacturing goldsmith network structures that, in accordance with claim 1, comprises the following steps:
  • a further aspect of the invention provides a goldsmith network structure which, in accordance with claim 10, is characterised by a warp member extending in a longitudinal direction, said warp member comprising a chain formed by one or more lines provided with interstices between adjacent links or modular elements, and at least a weft member comprising a flexible thread-like core inserted in said warp member in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of this latter at positions at predetermined distances from each other to define adjacent bights of said network structure.
  • a goldsmith network structure according to the invention comprises a member 2 which is hereinafter indicated as “warp” member, and is essentially constituted by one or more lines of chain in single, double or “twin” or multiple arrangement, each having a longitudinal extension and a nearly sinusoidal configuration.
  • the warp chain member 2 is formed by one or more lines of links or modular elements 2' reciprocally connected to define therebetween a plurality of interstices or cavities 3 along their longitudinal extension, for example in correspondence of the connecting points between the annular links or modular elements 2'.
  • a member 4 named hereinafter "weft” member which is essentially constituted by a flexible and extremely thin, thread-like core, for example a pressed or hammered “rol ⁇ ” gold thread, that is attached at one end thereof to a needle 5 or similar tool, for example a goldsmith soldering wire.
  • the weft thread-like member 4 is inserted through the interstices 3 of the warp member 2 along a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal extension of the latter, thus forming a network and hence a goldsmith network structure with adjacent bights or loops.
  • the thread-like core of weft member 4 is arranged to cross the chain warp member 2 at portions of the latter at predetermined distances of constant value P or variable value P', P" to define bights of equal span 6 or different span 6' as requested.
  • thread-like member 4 may have different plant shapes in such a manner to assume flower-like or similar configurations not shown in the figures.
  • ornamental elements constituted e.g. by balls 7, tubular sleeves 8 or precious and semi-precious stones not shown in the figures.
  • the warp chain member 2 may be formed by a plurality of mutually parallel lines to thereby define concentric circular sectors of chain.
  • end members not shown in the drawings may be inserted to provide mutual fixation of the two members 2, 4 and to stabilise the structure as a whole.
  • the network structure 1 obtainable with the above described method of manufacturing is formed by the combination of the warp member 2 comprising a single or multiple lines chain each formed by a plurality of adjacent links or modular elements 2' mutually connected and provided with interstices 3 between the adjacent links or modular elements 2', and of a weft member 4 comprising a flexible thread-like core inserted into the interstices of the warp member 2 in a substantially perpendicular direction with respect to the longitudinal extension of the latter, at positions at predetermined mutual distances so as to form a network structure with adjacent bights.
