Three rings Cycloïdes

The gold jewellery of the Ashanti in Ghana, where traditional artisans process beeswax by rolling it into very fine threads that they then use to model faces, animals, but also abstract motifs, was the inspiration for the Cycloid rings. The making of a Cycloid remains entirely manual; they cannot be moulded or reproduced.
