About Sprout 求婚戒指

Sprout是一款求婚戒指，其灵感源自泰戈尔的诗，设计师用它向妻子求婚。它采用有机戒指镶嵌单颗圆形明亮式切割钻石，看起来就像自然生长的植物藤蔓中盛开的花朵。设计师在3D软件中完成设计，并使用3D打印蜡模铸造18K金。最后，经过手工抛光，并镶嵌一颗圆形钻石。

Production Technology: The designer first uses 3D software to complete the design, then uses a 3D printed wax mold to cast 18K gold, then manually polished, and finally inlaid with high-quality diamond.
Design Challenge: The most difficult part in design and production is how to achieve organic and complex 3D shapes in such a small ring.
Research: Sprout is a ring designed by the designer to propose to his wife, and with the help of this unique ring, the proposal was successful.
Inspiration: Sprout is inspired by Tagore's poem, 'The spring flowers break out like the passive paint of unspoken love'. The designer vividly expresses the budding love in the poem, wrapping the diamond symbolizing eternal love with organic surface. It seems like there is a blooming flower in a naturally growing plant vine.
Project Duration: The project started in Jan 2021 in Shanghai and finished in June 2021.
Operation Flow: Wear it on the middle finger of the woman's left hand like an ordinary engagement ring.
