I have designed all the rings during my five years stay with the Tibetans in Dharamsala. To make them I used the traditional Tibetan technique, which uses small chisels and a hammer to create a design. It is time consuming and is quite difficult. It took me about two weeks to make each one of the rings. This is why today this technique is nearly disappearing. Each of the rings has a special meaning. They are all made of solid sterling silver and carry my initials and signature. If you wish to have them in gold, it is also possible. |
