A craftswoman from Extremadura has been commissioned to design the official earrings for Los Palomos 2026. The piece is manufactured using 3D printing, blending traditional jewelry-making with digital technology. For attendees, it offers an opportunity to acquire an exclusive accessory that supports local talent, adding a modern touch to a popular celebration deeply rooted in the region.
Digital design and additive manufacturing: how the jewel is created 💍
The process begins with detailed 3D modeling, where shapes and volumes inspired by the event's aesthetic are defined. Then, a resin or filament printer materializes the piece layer by layer. After printing, manual post-processing is performed: sanding, polishing, and a metallic bath if necessary. This method allows for high precision in details and reduces material waste compared to traditional casting. The result is a lightweight, reproducible piece with an artisanal finish.
The jewel that will make your neck last through an entire fair 🎉
Finally, earrings that don't weigh like a sack of potatoes. Thanks to 3D printing, you can dance sevillanas, shout at the fair booth, and hug everyone without your earlobe begging for mercy. And the best part: if you lose one, the craftswoman can replicate it in a couple of hours. Of course, then you'll have to explain why you're wearing only one while searching for the original under the bar table.
