About Acacia Ohrring

Der Designer war fasziniert von der geometrischen Form eines Samens, den ihm seine Tochter geschenkt hatte, und begann mit dem Entwurf. In der Natur ist nichts vollständig und alles ist vollständig, ist der erste Gedanke, der einem einfällt, wenn man dieses Paar Ohrringe sieht. Der Ring hat eine glatte und schöne Form und die Edelsteine sind wie Samen, die aus der Erde sprudeln und Ihre Aufmerksamkeit erregen. Es ist sehr einzigartig, die Natur und natürlich der Schmuck.
