Design Details
- Unique Properties
- The materials used in the making of the stones in this collection are exclusive & natural, and no chemical color or substance has been used in the production process.Using the organic shapes in the thin internal prong of the ring and its stone in the top, with minimalistic structure of the external shanks, has created a picturesque and balanced design.
- Inspiration
- Self-Actualization,Self-actualization means to render the maximum potentiality of an individual by her/himself.A mind which has traversed from darkness and murkiness to a manifestation of light.

- Research
