The first piece of Postmodern Rite of Passage collection, inspired by the Romanian fairy tale 'Povestea lui Harap Alb' and the challenges of contemporary young adults.
In the first challenge of the fairy tale, the hero has to steal the precious lettuce from the garden of the gigantic bear. In the less magical quest for adulthood, the modern day heroine has to sustain a balanced lifestyle and eat healthily. Hence, the ring base resembles a fork with bear trap spikes, the top is a single lettuce leaf, and the stones are made by casting red candy in resin.
Hand carved wax cast in copper, sterling silver plating, epoxy resin and red candy.
