The Design

About Acacia Минђуша

Дизајнер је био фасциниран геометријском формом семена које му је дала ћерка и он је започео дизајн. У природи ништа није потпуно и све је комплетно прва је мисао која може да помисли када види овај пар минђуша. Прстен је глатког и лепог облика, а драго камење је као семе које излази из земље, машући за вашу пажњу. То је веома јединствено, природа и наравно накит.
