The eggshell-shaped section can be opened from the middle to the sides, hiding a maze with a heart motif inside. There are magnets embedded in the bottom of the maze, so it can be removed freely. Both the eggshell and the ring shank are designed with a uniform three-layer circular pattern.
“People in their adulthood often cherish their fond memories of childhood more than in their childhood. These entertaining memories could be transformed into positive energy to help people release the pressure from life and work.The purpose of the design is to relieve the audience from the pressure while appreciating the series of works by showing a marble maze game in childhood memories. It is also aims to transmit the concept of art to people, to build an understanding of interactive jewellery, and to encourage them to have fun and resonate with the jewellery.”
