THE RUBAN DROPS ARE INSPIRED BY THE MOVEMENT OF RHYTHMIC GYMNASTICS RIBBONS, A MEMORY FROM WATCHING THE EUROPEAN OLYMPICS IN CHILDHOOD. HERE, THAT RIBBON LINE BECOMES LONGER AND MORE VERTICAL, UNFOLDING THROUGH SOFT LOOPS THAT FEEL SUSPENDED IN MOTION. THE DESIGN CAPTURES THE LIGHTNESS AND RHYTHM OF A RIBBON MOVING THROUGH THE AIR. THE EARRINGS ARE BUILT FROM ELONGATED LOOPING FORMS ARRANGED IN A GRADUATED VERTICAL COMPOSITION. PEARLS ARE PLACED AT KEY POINTS TO ANCHOR THE DESIGN, WHILE THE DIAMOND-SET SECTIONS TRACE THE RIBBON LINE AND EMPHASIZE THE MOVEMENT OF EACH CURVE. THE HALLMARK OF THE DESIGN IS THE PRECISION REQUIRED TO KEEP EACH OPEN LOOP BALANCED, ALIGNED, AND BEAUTIFULLY LIGHT.
