About The Dome Ring
Designen henter inspirasjon fra den unike blandingen av gresk, romersk, bysantinsk og osmansk arkitektur. Dome-ringen er like unik i sin utforming som den er en moderne tolkning av de berømte kuplene i Hagia Sophia. Designen er et resultat av doktorgradsforskingen som Fatma Altinbas gjennomførte i Grand Bazaar i 2 år, om smykkeproduksjonens historie i området. Dome-ringen er laget av 18-karat rosegull og prydet med totalt 0,22 karat diamanter med G-farge og VS1-klarhet, både på innsiden og utsiden.
