Inspired from the paisley pattern-which adorned the characteristic fabrics of the Middle East, especially India-this ring reflects the magic and spiritual charm of India and its culture, embodying the essence of a voluminous and elegant Kashmir shawl.While generally falling into the category of domed rings, it displays an unusual interplay of positive and negative spaces, where the void becomes an integral part of the design, creating a decoration that balances complexity and simplicity in a delicate equilibrium.Gemstones enhance the legibility of the design while adding vibrant color accents

Bio
Eleonora is a gemologist graduated from one of the most prestigious institutes in Europe, the Istituto Gemmologico Italiano. She also holds a degree in Art History. That is why she finds inspiration in gemstones, Art and Nature. As a wax carving sculptor with bench jeweler skills, she is not only involved in the design process but also oversees the production of each jewelry piece from conception to completion. She believes that a piece of jewelry must be a wearable piece of art, unique and inimitable. That earned her recognition in the form of several prestigious international design awards.
