About The Ray Broche

Boek Teks: Die Ray is 'n broche geïnspireer deur 'n sonstraal wat op 'n bewolkte dag deur die wolke skyn. Die basiskleur van die broche is donker, aangesien die stuk swart rodium-verplate metaal en 'n swart diamant gebruik. Helder edelstene word met die donker basis gekombineer om die hele stuk te verhelder. Die pêrels gee 'n sagte gloed, terwyl die diamante blinkheid langs die donker metaal voeg. Die broche is ontwikkel as 'n driedimensionele digitale model. Die Ray meet 50 by 30 by 17 millimeter.
