About Homa Anello, Collana
Homa è un anello a doppia funzione che può essere indossato anche come collana. Il pezzo è realizzato in oro 18K e impreziosito da un rubino blu sintetico. L'anello interno è elastico, così da poter essere adattato alla misura del dito di chi lo indossa. Un meccanismo a guida, ispirato alle ruote dei treni, consente di trasformare l'anello in una collana. Una semplice chiusura posta sotto il pezzo mantiene la forma in posizione quando l'anello viene portato al dito. Il design offre a chi lo indossa la libertà di scegliere la funzione e un'interazione diretta con l'oggetto. Il nome Homa fa riferimento all'uccello della felicità della letteratura persiana.
