About The Ray Broška

Besedilo knjige: The Ray je broška, navdihnjena z žarkom sončne svetlobe, ki se prebije skozi oblake na oblačen dan. Osnovna barva broške je temna, saj je izdelek narejen iz kovine, prevlečene s črnim rodijem, in vsebuje črni diamant. Svetli dragi kamni so združeni s temno osnovo, da razsvetlijo celoten izdelek. Perle dajejo mehak sijaj, medtem ko diamanti ob temni kovini dodajo bleščico. Broška je bila razvita kot tridimenzionalni digitalni model. The Ray meri 50 x 30 x 17 milimetrov.
