Collection concept: "Aqua Waves" Collection
Aqua Waves channels the rhythm and elegance of water through sustainable design. Crafted from 18K recycled gold and green non-toxic enamel, each piece echoes nature’s movement. Cascade Earrings evoke the fluid fall of waterfalls; Tide Necklace, the ebb and flow of the sea; Ripple Bracelet, the breeze-kissed surface of a still pond; Wave Ring, the soft undulations of calm water. Together, they reflect harmony, resilience, and a deep respect for Earth’s beauty—jewelry as a quiet act of environmental devotion.
