The African-headed rings are a celebration of the diversity and beauty of African culture. Each ring is expertly crafted, combining etched surfaces and intricate details to represent the richness of African traditions. These rings are not just accessories, but true works of art that carry a message of inclusion and respect for all cultures. We took inspiration from tribal masks used for celebration of rituals.

Each pearl is a microcosm of details, made with traditional techniques and a touch of innovation.The sinuous shapes and bright colors of the focal beads transform these pieces into wearable works of art.
