Gloria is a jewelry collection that includes a ring and a bracelet. The design is inspired by the halo, a luminous ring that artists paint around the heads of saints as a sign of virtue. The main shanks of the ring and the body of the bracelet are shaped by hand from wire. The stones are also made by hand from natural materials, without chemical colors or added substances, so the stones can return to nature. The pieces can be worn separately or combined, so the form and the function can be changed. The intent is to express the elevation of the human spirit in a wearable object.
