The Design

About Acacia Boucle D'oreille

Le designer a été fasciné par la forme géométrique d'une graine donnée par sa fille et il a commencé la conception. Dans la nature, rien n'est complet et tout est complet est la première pensée à laquelle on peut penser quand on voit cette paire de boucles d'oreilles. L'anneau a une forme lisse et belle, et les pierres précieuses sont comme la graine sortant du sol, agitant pour votre attention. C'est très unique, la nature et bien sûr les bijoux.
