It was so important to me that Romeo showed as much personality as possible even though he is just 1cm in size. I used the Shards own Romeo cartoons as a starting point and decided he should be curled up on a little lunchbox to represent his time living the highlife at the Shard. I wanted to really test my skills as a jewellery designer and see if I could make his lunchbox double up as a little opening locket feature. After many attempts of trial and error and perfecting this design, we managed to get the teeny tiny lunchbox to successfully open on even tinier hinges and once I had managed this, I simply knew that Romeo needed his own set of half munched sandwiches inside his lunchbox.

 

And so the next challenge was for us to make something around 4mm in size look like a teeny tiny sandwich quarter and secure it inside this teeny tiny opening lunchbox!
