About Moshabak Singsing

Ang Moshabak usa ka singsing nga giinspirar sa reticular lattice nga mga screen sa karaang mga balay sa Persia. Ang singsing gisul-ob sa tudlo ug gipaatubang sa kahayag, aron ang bukas nga sumbanan makapahulog og mga anino ug disenyo diha sa kamot. Ang porma niini balanse ug gaan ang gibug-aton. Ang ergonomic nga mga arko sa isigka-kilid nagpahiluna batok sa silingang mga tudlo alang sa kahapsay. Ang disenyo gihimo pinaagi sa three-dimensional software, giprinta gamit ang kandila (wax), ug gitunaw ngadto sa 18 karat nga bulawan (yellow gold) nga adunay taas nga kasinatian sa polished nga hitsura nga sama sa salamin. Naghimo usab og mga bersyon sa rose gold ug plata.
