A unique 3D design artwork with mesmerizing properties, the Taj gold bracelet showcases a basic geometric pattern that unfurls to reveal an exquisite 3D lace. This design encourages women to embrace their boldness and let their inner personality shine.

Drawing inspiration from Indian aesthetics, this 3D lace design encapsulates the opulence of floral patterns and pendants found in Indian jewelry. The design features an Islamic geometric pattern created by intersecting four flat circles at the base of the jewel, which then unfurls into an intricate three-dimensional lace with floral motifs, evoking a sense of airiness and elegance.
Research
Lines and curves come together to create the intricate patterns and subtle harmonies of Moucharabieh jewelry.

Each design is influenced by Islamic geometric art found in ancient and contemporary architecture, encapsulating a timeless heritage to create high-end costume jewelry.
