The Design

About Acacia Eyrnalokkar

Hönnuðurinn var heillaður af rúmfræðilegu formi fræs sem dóttir hans gaf honum og hann hóf hönnunina. Í náttúrunni er ekkert fullkomið og allt er fullkomið er fyrsta hugsunin sem maður getur hugsað þegar maður sér þetta eyrnalokkar. Hringurinn hefur slétt og fallegt form og gimsteinarnir eru eins og fræið sem kemur upp úr jörðinni og veifar eftir athygli þinni. Það er mjög einstakt, náttúran og auðvitað skartgripirnir.
