INSPIRATION
The Koi ring is a silver creation that pays tribute to the majesty of the koi carp, a noble fish of Asia. Originally from the rice paddies of China, the carp was introduced to Japan centuries ago, where it became a true symbol of beauty and courage. In Japanese ponds and gardens, its graceful movements and vibrant colors — red, white, yellow, or black — are seen as a dance of harmony and inner peace.
Renowned for symbolizing love, masculinity, and prosperity, the koi carp primarily embodies strength and perseverance, swimming against the swift currents of waterfalls and rivers. It teaches the importance of never giving up in the face of life’s challenges.
According to the ancient legend of the Yellow River, carp that successfully swam upstream to the Dragon Gate were rewarded by the gods and transformed into celestial dragons. This mythical metamorphosis inspired the famous Japanese carp-shaped kites, called koinobori, flown during Children’s Day (Kodomo no Hi) to celebrate achievement, growth, and courage.
The Koi ring is thus a symbol of personal growth and transformation. Its delicate design, featuring carp swimming peacefully around the finger, evokes the serenity of zen gardens, the fluidity of water, and the pursuit of balance between inner strength and the gentleness of the heart.
