Pysanky - beautifully decorated eggs
embellished with Ukrainian folk motifs
A client wanted to create a truly special ring for his fiancee. Her family was from the Ukraine, so he asked us to create a custom ring inspired by the beautifully decorated Ukrainian Easter eggs known as "pysanky". First we crafted a platinum ring with a slightly domed outer surface. Then the ring was hand engraved with traditional pysanky motifs selected by our client - repeated diamond shapes, eight-ray stars and small checkerboard patterns. Three of the diamond shapes were set with sparkling round diamonds and the rest of the diamond shapes frame radiant starbursts. |

Like a sculptor, our engraver used a technique called "relief engraving" to carve away small areas of platinum and realize the client's design. The background was then darkened to highlight the pysanky motifs. The sturdiness of the handcrafted band and the depth of the engraving help assure this ring will become a family heirloom that can be passed down from one generation to next. Each of our custom rings is special and signed with Bijoux Extraordinaire's registered hallmark, "BEL". The purity of the precious metals is also indicated, in this case "PLAT" for platinum. These marks are your assurance of imaginative design, uncompromising craftsmanship and quality materials. |
