Io is a piece of the award-winning* jewelry collection "odyssey" by monomer.
The basic idea behind the design is to use geometric, voluminous shapes which are covered with a patterned skin. This creates an interplay of clarity and distortion of transparency and exclusion. This fascinating and simple idea creates limitless variety of shapes and fits in perfect harmony with the possibilities of rapid-prototyping, because everyone can customize his personal unique jewelry which is than individually manufactured.
Each shape has a specific name and it´s pattern is named after a divinity of the greek mythology.
Io is a sculpture for your wrist. It fits perfect in a combination with our pendant diskus or the ring dione.
We hope you enjoy our design and your individual combination of Io and all other pieces of the collection "odyssey".

This ring is composed of a four-stranded braid. The strands have a pentagonal shape for a strong, angular look. I also offer a five-stranded version.
This design is printable in any of the plastic and metal materials. But be aware that the stainless steel-based materials (stainless steel, gold plated, and antique bronze) have a somewhat rough, pitted surface that tends to obscure the details of this design a bit.
Please specify the ring size (US/Canada) when ordering. The design shown above is size 8. If you are unsure of your size, you may wish to first order the ring in one of the strong and flexible plastic materials to try it on.
If you do not have an account with Shapeways already, you will have to create one to place an order, but it only takes a few seconds!
I started experimenting with braid designs to make a wedding band and matching bracelets for my fiancée. (And you can see the bracelets and a variation on the band in my shop as well.) I kept playing with the braid design, and it turns out that you get something pretty cool if you space the strands of the braid enough that they no longer intersect. This bracelet is made of a braid of nine strands woven through each other. Printed in nylon (the 'strong and flexible' materials), the separate but interlocked strands make the bracelet a bit stretchy and bouncy.
Please select a size when ordering. The lengths listed are the inside circumference of the bracelet in its relaxed state. They stretch a bit, which makes it easier to get your hand through them. If you would like a size other than the ones listed, just choose 'other/custom' and tell me what size you would like in the 'special instructions' window. You do have to create an account with Shapeways to place an order, but it only takes a few seconds!
Note: I have only printed this design in the 'strong and flexible' plastic materials. It also meets the design rules for the detail plastics materials, but I don't know how flexible or how delicate the bracelets are when printed in them. I think they would look pretty cool printed in the transparent detail plastics, but they might not be suitable to wear.

You could print your name, number or a special message. Then use it as a key ring or pendant.
I am personally using one with my name and phone number as a key ring.
