Heartbeat was developed from a mold taken from an antique nurses' stethoscope and cast in urethane resin with a Swarovski jewel in the center. Hung from a industrial stainless steel wye connector with a rubber cord and magnetic clasp.

Quirky and provocative with an industrial edge, work from Melanie Feerst Studio is inspired by dark humor, Japanese design and the medical or fetishized body. Fabricated with industrial rubber and studio-designed 3D printed parts, the pieces are occasionally deceptive (lighter than they look), multifunctional (ability to switch out parts or turn over) or nostalgic (parts repurposed based on their form).
