What sets the Eternal Diamond apart is its unique properties. The ring features a spinning golden band that revolves horizontally at its center, a departure from the traditional static band. This band can be personalized with the owner's initials, a feature that adds a unique touch to each piece. The band can also be adorned with a variety of gold colors or tiny diamonds, adding another layer of customization.
The ring is crafted from 18k white and yellow gold and is adorned with a 0.3ct diamond and a 0.01ct diamond. The dimensions of the ring are 20mm*23mm. Despite its intricate design, the ring maintains a classic and simple aesthetic, ensuring it remains timeless.
The design process was not without its challenges. The most significant hurdle was ensuring the golden band could revolve smoothly on its center. This required careful engineering and precise craftsmanship, but the result is a ring that is as functional as it is beautiful.
The Eternal Diamond was designed in 2010 in Seoul, Korea and has been a best-seller since it went on sale in 2011. The design's success is a testament to Sohn's innovative approach and attention to detail. As the Creative Director, Sohn was instrumental in bringing the Eternal Diamond to life.
The Eternal Diamond was awarded the Golden A' Jewelry, Eyewear, and Watch Design Award in 2013. This prestigious award is granted to designs that reflect the designer's prodigy and wisdom, advance art, science, design, and technology, and significantly impact the world with their desirable characteristics. The Eternal Diamond certainly fits this description, as it offers a fresh take on a classic symbol of love.
