The Lilac Kaleidoscope Art Ring by Ciara Bowles is a stunning and vibrant one-of-a-kind ring that showcases a brilliant combination of elements. Crafted with 9ct yellow gold, it features a captivating array of purple and pink sapphires totalling 1.4 carats. The use of these colourful gemstones evokes a kaleidoscope of shades, creating a mesmerizing and vibrant design that's both elegant and unique. This ring is a striking example of the beauty and creativity that can be achieved through the combination of precious metals and gemstones.
Ciara says about her Art Ring:
"By definition, a kaleidoscope is an observation of beautiful forms. I have explored playing with harmonious pastel colour combinations to provoke feelings of serenity. Lilacs are usually strongly associated with female traits, such as caring, emotion, and upbringing. It is an ode to colour and pattern through the medium of sapphires".
