- Bio
Brilliantly imagined and with exquisite detail, a captivating, colorful bumble bee is frozen within the interior of this one-of-a-kind Sevan Bicakci ring. The three dimensional bug has been created by intaglio carving - a technique using reverse carving from the underside of the faceted oval citrine. Painstakingly painted to precision, the bumble bee sits on a honeycomb and is encased in the pale yellow stone which is framed by sparkling black diamonds alongside purple and yellow micro mosaic. The underside of the engraved sterling silver band is lined with 24K yellow gold and is signed, dated, and numbered by Sevan.
Each piece of Sevan's jewelry is a collaboration of painters, calligraphers, engravers, micro-mosaic masters, sculptors and masters of gem-setting.
