In preparation for a proposal,
The first meeting with the groom at the atelier was in December.
It was the season when a crisp, cool air lingered.
As they explored a range of design candidates,
the first element deemed essential to the ring was
the anise carving on the side of "Iris".
The carving patterns created using traditional Japanese techniques are
known for their ability to craft small-bowl dishes,
and it was a perfect fit for their partner's image.
Giving form to the myriad feelings that arise
The groom's key consideration was the silhouette of the ring.
Another candidate that emerged was named "Brillante",
in the form known as a flat shank, with a square-armed profile,
a collection in which diamonds are set to a low height.
Chosen from the wish that it would be worn often,
The simple silhouette of "Brillante".
However, in the conversation, what began to grow in the groom was
the Iris with a central stone that stands out
the desire to also cherish a silhouette befitting an engagement ring.
Therefore, while preserving the "Iris" silhouette,
by reducing the height and keeping the central stone to a modest size.
A single silhouette born from their feelings for their partner
By reducing the height,
the balance with the carving patterns and the brilliance of the side stones also came together in harmony,
a silhouette less prone to snagging was born.
And in spring, the delivery was finally made.
The iris, from which the name "Iris" is derived, is now in full bloom.
A flower whose language is "hope" and "love" becomes the shape of the ring,
We sincerely hope that it will bind the two of them more strongly.
