About Sprout Foarstel Ring

Sprout is in foarstelring ynspireare troch it gedicht fan Tagore en de ûntwerper foarstelde syn frou dêrmei. It oannimt in organyske ring set mei in inkele rûne briljant besunige diamant, dy't liket op in bloeiende blom yn in natuerlik groeiende plantwynstok. De ûntwerper foltôget it ûntwerp yn 3D-software, en brûkt in 3D-printe waaksfoarm om 18K goud te smiten. Uteinlik wurdt it mei de hân gepolijst, en ynlein mei in rûne diamant.
