RO123272B1 - Process for making polychrome decorative arrangements of seeds, vegetable wastes and mineral granulites - Google Patents

Abstract

The invention relates to a process for making polychrome decorative arrangements of seeds, vegetable wastes and mineral granulites, in which, coloured or natural seeds or mineral granulites, of various grain sizes, ground or not ground, are layered within a transparent bulb-shaped glass flask or flat-bottomed balloon, the layers being arranged in ascending or descending order, sorted according to the grain size, from the fine grains, in the range of 0.1 mm to those of up to 5 mm, which are introduced in series, by means of a funnel, so as to prevent layer diffusion, where each layer has thicknesses ranging between 7...10 mm and is settled with a wooden pestle with a view to evening and compacting the layer, and finally, when the layer arrangement is finalized, the flask is closed with a plastic or cork plug which is then covered with a square piece of polychrome textile material or canvas which is tied with hemp cord.

Description

The invention relates to a process for making polychrome ornamental arrangements from seeds, plant residues and mineral granules, arrangements that are used as static systems in environmental designs, tea rituals, chromotherapy and esoteric rituals, etc.

We know polychrome ornamental arrangements from plant debris (leaves, petals, flowers, dried stems, as such or pressed) and seeds with iconographic rendering in two-dimensional system (painting - landscapes, static natures, etc.), which have the disadvantage of not providing space, in terms of perspective and color play.

Also known are arrangements such as veneer inlays, hard stones, shells, snails, ridges, hooves, ivory, etc., insects (butterflies, beetles, etc.), which have the disadvantage of the above polychrome ornamental arrangements, and In addition, they are very fragile, which is why they require varnishing processes.

We know polychrome or monochrome tiles for mosaics and artistic stained glass, which allow obtaining only two-dimensional systems, parietal, paving, etc. and requires large processes consuming thermal energy for glazing or fusion.

Also known are ornamental space lighting systems, made of polychrome glass or those that emit flavors in the form of candles, candlesticks, lamps, etc., which have the disadvantage that they involve energy-intensive manufacturing processes during installation or display.

It is also known from the application of 2004 01065 a process for obtaining an art object from plant seeds, which consists in transposing a chosen design on a support, choosing the seeds or crystals on sorts, size and color, applying a layer of adhesive on support, fixing the seeds on the contours and formed surfaces, drying them in an interval of 22-26 h and applying layers of varnish at an interval of 20-24 h, followed by mounting the support in a frame.

From the patent RO 11544 is known a container arranged in one or more flowers in which various items can be stored.

The problem solved by the invention consists in obtaining static polychrome arrangements, with uniform spatial arrangement in layers of the materials used, without contaminating the colors between the layers and creating a perspective and a play of colors.

The production process according to the invention consists in obtaining a polychrome ornamental arrangement, with multiple structures, spatial or not, arranged in a transparent glass vessel or bottle, having the shape of a bulb or balloon, with a flat bottom, hermetically closed and with volume. determined, in which there are stratified structures of seeds, dried vegetable residues, artificially colored or not, candied fruits, powders of various granules of ceramic materials, marble, gems, sand, etc., their arrangement being made in the order of decreasing granulation, with a funnel , each layer being compacted with a wooden pistil for compaction and uniformity, and after the formation of two or three layers with different and contrasting chromatics, with the help of a thin and hard wooden hook, for example horn, hazelnut, etc., they pierce the layers at the level of the glass, the tip of the hook going next to the glass, to obtain artistic drawings, the layered structure can be developed up to the upper part of the glass lei, or up to a certain level, in the latter case the fixing of the colored layers is done with the help of a colorless lacquer, gel or acrylic polymer, arranged in several successive layers, which can also enclose certain colored seeds or granules, and centrally, in the free area a bouquet consisting of flowers, leaves, dried spikes colored or not can be implanted; After curing the varnish, gel or polymer, the bottle is closed with a plastic or cork stopper, which is covered with an ornate textile or jute bag, tied with tricolor or hemp twine.

RO 123272 Β1

The invention has the following advantages: 1

- allows to obtain polychrome ornamental arrangements that give a dynamic image, with special chromatic effects;

- the process allows the uniform layered arrangement of the various colored seeds or powders, starting from those with large granulometers, at the base and ending with very fine powders, thus avoiding color contamination between layers;

- raw materials and indigenous materials are used, 7

- a multitude of models can be made by arranging the layers horizontally or inclined, and the perturbation, in the case of horizontal systems can be done vertically or inclined, 9 when symmetrical or not in the form of circular arcs, zig-zags results and inclined ellipsoids; 11

- the arrangements allow the realization of a horizontal architecture of the seeds similar to that of the chains, to which it is cosisted with the vertical architecture of the seeds, which confers a high spatiality and perspective, leading to dynamic chromatic effects (color games);

- very low manufacturing cost; 15

- the arrangement is made without energy consumption and with reduced labor;

- the production process and the product are environmentally friendly. 17

The following are two embodiments of the invention.

Example 1. To obtain a particular arrangement, take a vial or bottle 19 of clear glass, in the form of a bulb or flask with a flat bottom, with a capacity of 250 or 330 ml, previously thoroughly washed and dried. Separately, from the more than 50 seed varieties, as such or ground, with different granulations and over 70 mineral granules (stones, gems, marble, sand, etc.), colored or not, sorted by granulation, from the fine ones , of the order of 0.1 23 to 5 mm, certain aprons are taken, depending on the desired ornamental pattern. First arrange the first layer of the largest apron of choice, which is inserted with a funnel, 25 in sufficient quantity to solve a given thickness between 7-10 mm and which is compacted for compaction and uniformity with a wooden pistil. Then another two or three layers, of different, contrasting colors, of coarse or coarse seeds or granules are inserted, after which, by means of a thin hook of horn or hazel wood, they are pierced with the tip 29 of the hook, going past glass, disturbing the layers and making polychrome designs when extracting the hook. similarly the following layers of different colors are introduced, with 31 smaller and smaller granulations. After arranging 3-4 layers, the layers are disturbed again at the glass level with the help of the hook, making various chromatic designs, without contaminating the colors in each layer. Do this until the bottle is completely filled, then close it with a plastic or cork stopper and cover it with a square piece of polychrome textile or jute sack, which is tied with a hemp twine, in the shape of a bow, heart or a small braid. The thickness of the layers 37 can be equal or different, and in the center area can be made from one to three thin, undisturbed layers, which allow a symmetry of the design along the length 39 of the bottle. Also, the arrangement of the layers can be done horizontally or inclined, and the perturbation, in the case of horizontal systems can be done vertically or inclined, when 41 results symmetrical or not symmetrical, in the form of arcs, zig-zags and ellipsoids inclined, similar to popular motifs, such arrangements allow for the realization of a horizontal architecture of the seeds similar to that of the fields, to which it coexists with the vertical architecture of the seeds, which confers a high spatiality and perspective, leading to 45 dynamic chromatic effects, representing true symbols of life, hope and victory.

Example 2. To obtain another arrangement, also take a vial or 47 clear glass bottle, in the form of a bulb or flat-bottomed flask, of a capacity of 250 or 330 ml, previously thoroughly washed and dried. Separately, from different varieties of seeds, with 49 small granulations, two or three layers are arranged, formed or disturbed or not by means of the thin wooden hook, according to example 1, over which one or two layers of seeds are arranged 51

RO 123272 Β1 naturally chewed or colored mineral granules, usually with slightly larger granules, but with very different shades between layers. Thus, over the first set of layers of seeds with small granules, formed and disturbed according to Example 1, comprising about a quarter of the volume of the vessel, the first layer of seeds or large granules is arranged, in the form of a monolayer over which a gel, varnish is poured. or transparent acrylic polymer up to a height that includes the seeds or granulites and even exceed them by a few millimeters, respectively 5-10 mm.

After hardening of the layer, other large seeds or granules of a different color are arranged in a single layer, over which the gel, varnish or transparent acrylic polymer is poured, to a height which, similar to the lower layer, includes the seeds or granules and even exceed them by a few millimeters, 5-10 mm. Form two to three such 11 layers, but not exceeding half the height of the bottle. In the last layer, before curing, a polychrome bouquet of dried flowers, leaves, small ears 13 dried, natural or painted is inserted (implanted). The system thus formed is closed with a plastic or cork stopper, and on top it is covered with a square piece of polychrome textile or jute bag, 15 which is tied with a hemp twine, in the shape of a bow, heart or a small braided.
