About Homa منڍي، هار

هوما هڪ ٻٽي مقصد واري منڍي آهي جيڪا هار جي طور تي به پائي سگهجي ٿي. هي ٽڪرو 18K سون مان ٺهيل آهي ۽ ان ۾ مصنوعي نيرو ياقوت لڳل آهي. اندروني منڍي لچڪدار آهي، تنهنڪري منڍي کي پائيندڙ جي آڱر جي ماپ مطابق ترتيب ڏئي سگهجي ٿو. ريل جي پيٽي جهڙو هڪ رِيل ميڪانيزم، جيڪو ريل گاڏي جي ڦيٿن تي ٻڌل آهي، منڍي کي هار ۾ تبديل ٿيڻ جي اجازت ڏئي ٿو. ٽڪري جي هيٺان هڪ سادو تالو، جڏهن منڍي آڱر تي پائي وڃي ٿي ته ان جي بناوت کي پنهنجي جاءِ تي مضبوط رکي ٿو. هي ڊيزائن پائيندڙ کي فنڪشن جي چونڊ ۽ شيءِ سان سڌي رابطي جو موقعو ڏئي ٿو. هوما جو نالو فارسي ادب ۾ خوشحاليءَ جي پکيءَ ڏانهن اشارو ڪري ٿو.
