There are some words that the jewellery designer lives by, some words that keep her connected, some that bring her strength and hope, and some that remind her of her own path. One of her missions as a conceptual jewellery artist is to be the medium through which the wearer to holds her words close to her heart. So, she created this Custom Mantra Ring on which the wearer can write her thoughts, her song, her message, a letter to another person perhaps… the jeweller will write her words both on the outside and the inside in the wearer’s chosen language, and customize it for her… only one piece, only for her.
