PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: All stages of design and ideation until the production of each piece of the collection are done by hand. Therefore, this
collection can be considered handmade. To make each one, first, the gold is melted, then it is poured into a mold so
that it becomes a long wire and cools. Then this wire is turned into a belt in the rolling machine. The belts produced
are shaped by hand using tools such as narrow tails. The final stage of polishing and tone sanding is performed to
shine and polish. In the case of the ring, before the final finishing, the two sides are welded together.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Rumi is a poet and gnostic of the 12th century AD. He is known for his love for Shams Tabrizi which connected him to an ocean of truth. His Knowledge is famous among Iranians. Although he is acknowledged well as a poet, he can be considered among philosophers. One of his poems is named The Dance of Atoms. His poems affect all his readers and the designer was no exception. His interest in this piece by Rumi has forced him to create an artwork. This Collection is inspired by The Dance of Atoms.
CHALLENGE: To be handmade, there were some challenging parts of production. The first challenge in manufacturing was finding
the right thickness for the belt. Considering that they were made by hand and tools were used to create the overall
form, the sleight had to be adjusted in such a way that the form and shape of the frequency were created smoothly and
correctly. The final result about the thickness was 0.37mm. The second challenge was in the polishing stage. Polishing
the curves and frequent twists of the parts requires more accuracy than flat surfaces.
