Floral Bamboo Ring with Pink Tourmaline and Diamond

Beautiful bamboo ring, handmade with natural Japanese bamboo root, decorated atop with blossoming pink tourmalines petals with a diamond studded bud in 9K gold plated silver. Leafs growing from either ends are studded in diamonds, set in black rhodium plated sterling silver. The ring has been lined on the side with 9K gold plated sterling silver and lined inside with black rhodium sterling silver.

Crafted from Japanese Bamboo root and transformed into a ring, it’s a pure depiction of the ingenuity of Lotus Arts de Vivre designs – original, inventive and yet purposeful. Bamboo, while exotic in the west, is one of the most practical natural plants. It has tremendous strength as shown when used as scaffolds on construction sites. It grows fast and flowers only once in a lifetime, then dies. The time of flowering can be 5 to 75 years and when it happens, it occurs across the world at the same time. The finer strands are used for fans, purses, bags, hats, baskets and other items. Larger, thick strips are used for flower baskets, walls and other items, while bamboo roots like these can offer a wide variety of purposes. Bamboo was originally used for practical items around the house, these have been further developed by Lotus Arts de Vivre into art pieces.

The piece took over 1.5 month to finish, with over 6 designers and craftsmen involved at various stages.
