Nostalgium is a silver ring inspired by traditional Persian houses. The design joins two frames. The circular frame recalls the courtyard pond of old Iranian architecture. The square frame recalls the window that geranium flowerpots once decorated. A leaf shape completes the piece and keeps the soft texture and fine veins of a geranium leaf. The ring body is made of 92.5 sterling silver, melted and then rolled, sawn and soldered. The leaf is built from layers of 99.9 fine silver clay and then fired. The intent is to recall pleasant memories of the past.
