ABOUT
"The door of our soul" ring is a creation inspired by the magnificent traditional embroideries of Slavic garments. These richly adorned embroideries feature a wide variety of motifs, ranging from figurative representations like animals and plants to abstract forms such as geometric figures. Vivid and striking colors, often red on a white background, were commonly used, as red was believed to possess special protective powers.
Slavic embroideries often carried hidden messages that only the initiated or certain individuals could decipher. Some motifs served as talismans against evil spirits, offering protection to the wearer’s soul. These embroideries were strategically placed on the collar, sleeves, and waist of garments to create a barrier against harmful influences. Their protective power was even stronger when the embroidery was made by a loved one, adding a personal and intimate dimension to the protection.
Our ring features a distinctive geometric pattern, with a frieze of diamonds delicately adorned with hooked edges. This design evokes the traditional motifs of Slavic embroideries, transforming an ancient cultural element into a modern piece of jewelry.
Just like the secrets hidden within these embroideries, it is essential to open the gateway to our soul only to those who are trustworthy. Our soul is our most precious asset, and it is our responsibility to choose carefully what we allow in and to whom we reveal it. The "Gateway to the Soul" ring is a symbolic reminder of the need to protect our inner essence, allowing only those who deserve our trust to access it.
Wear this ring as a talisman of protection and a tribute to Slavic art and culture, while affirming your own discernment and wisdom in preserving your soul.
