About The Golden Viper Ripats
Golden Viper on ripats, mis on loodud sõrmuse kindlaks hoidmiseks kaelakee küljes. Vorm põhineb maol, mis on iidne tervenemise sümbol. Ripats võimaldab hoida sõrmust ketil, kui seda ei saa sõrmes kanda, näiteks meditsiinitöötajatel tööl olles. Sõrmus juhitakse läbi ripatsi mööda ketti ja pööratakse tagasi oma kohale, nii et kaelakeed ei ole vaja eemaldada. Ese on valatud 18-karaadisest kullast ja poleeritud kõrgläikeni. Sisemine läbimõõt sobib erinevatele sõrmuse suurustele.

- Production Technology
- The Golden Viper pendant was initially hand-sketched, digitally rendered using CAD software, prototyped, and subsequently cast in 18k gold (750). The finished piece is meticulously polished to a high gloss, ensuring a premium aesthetic.
- Design Challenge
- Significant creative and technical challenges arose during prototyping and casting phases. Achieving consistently flawless casting without shrinkage cavities or distortion demanded multiple iterations. Overcoming these obstacles ensured structural integrity and aesthetic excellence in each finished pendant.
- Research
- The design required thorough empirical research into varying ring sizes to determine optimal pendant dimensions. Multiple prototypes were developed to test the snake pendant's adaptability and functionality. Insights from these tests allowed precise tailoring of the snake’s belly diameter, ensuring compatibility with different ring sizes and delivering a practical, user-friendly jewelry piece with tangible benefits for medical professionals.
- Inspiration
- The snake has symbolized medical virtues, healing, and immortality since ancient times. Recognizing that medical professionals cannot wear rings at work due to hygiene regulations - often leading to misplaced or lost wedding bands - this pendant was specifically designed as a practical and elegant solution in the form of a snake. Doctors and medical staff can securely store their rings on this necklace, preventing losses commonly associated with hospital attire while ensuring their rings remain easily accessible.
- Project Duration
- The project commenced in September 2024 and was completed in March 2025 in Steinbach (Taunus), Germany.
- Operation Flow
- To secure a ring, the wearer guides it along the necklace chain through the snake-shaped pendant from the top, looping it back upwards, thus safely positioning it. To remove the ring, the wearer simply reverses the process without needing to take off the necklace.
