In Persian literature, it is the symbol of splendor and magnificence and the sign of a good omen.

UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Due to the fact that the user per se is involved with the piece, a more desirably optimized feeling will be generated within her. Since the inner ring is elastic, it can be adjusted based on the size of user’s finger. A rail mechanism, based on train wheels, is devised to turn the ring to a necklace. A simple lock has been utilized beneath the piece to be fixed.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT:
The Homa has a special role in Persian Miniature and Mythology used as a symbol of beauty and grace, in current design. This piece is designed to be a practical dual purpose artwork, changing from a ring to a necklace. Since the inner ring is elastic, it can be adjusted based on the size of user’s finger. A rail mechanism, based on train wheels, is devised to turn the ring to a necklace.

CHALLENGE:
The hardest part of design of this artwork was to design this piece to be a practical dual-purpose artwork. Choosing a rail mechanism, based on train wheels, to turn the ring to a necklace was a creative part of design. Moreover, making the changeable and moveable part of ring just by hand, not by special machine, was too difficult.
