DESIGN NAME: Lorea Ring
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Ring
INSPIRATION: The three diamonds, each in a different size, act like plants striving for sunlight, indicating an unavoidable natural force and a constant will to grow. To perpetuate this intention, the branches never close the circle, an analogy for a relationship between lovers that flourishes in order to endure.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The light yet imposing design presents three diamonds as the main elements of the jewelry. The composition with the gems in different sizes was created to achieve an impression of constant growth, as if it were an ever-evolving organism, resulting in a dynamic composition of curves. The square cut diamonds, along with the white gold polished surface, provide the modern elegance to the ring that appeals to the target audience.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: n/a
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in November 2014 in Sao Paulo, Brasil. It took around 2 weeks from the first prototypes to the final piece.
