Opal, Diamond, Emerald & 18k Gold
<Dust of Love>
Written by Younghee Kim
Just as there are grand laws in the universe, the universe of love shared by two lovers must also have its own unique and charming laws.
Just like the waxing and waning of the moon, they yearn for each other, meet and become one, part temporarily, but within this cycle, they feel each other deeply. This law twists and extends the time of the universe, rendering time and separation meaningless.
The longing and loneliness felt when apart are not wasted; instead, they become exquisite cosmic dust that fills the universe of love more densely and robustly. I imagined this and crafted it into a ring.
Lying in the mysterious and ever-changing opal universe, just like the emotions of love, I gaze at the diamond dust floating beautifully like stars.
On the back of the ring, I incorporated a Möbius strip, symbolizing eternity. By threading a chain through the strip, it can also be worn as a necklace.
