About Dandelion Prsteň

Dandelion je prsteň inšpirovaný tvarom kvetu púpavy. Prsteň sa skladá zo skupiny okvetných lístkov, pričom každý lístok nesie iné detaily. Niektoré lístky sú stočené, niektoré sú osadené diamantmi a iné sú vyryté jemnými líniami. Šperk je vyrobený z 18-karátového zlata v dvoch farbách s použitím niekoľkých zložitých zlatníckych techník. Krivky a línie sa používajú na vyjadrenie ľahkosti a slobody. Rytiny a diamanty odrážajú svetlo vo dne aj v noci. Tvar obruče je navrhnutý tak, aby sa prsteň ľahko nosil.
