Pray Ring 〈DEER ANTLER〉
An armor ring carved from Ezo deer antler.
The design was inspired by ancient armor.
The structure of protective equipment, made by combining hard materials to protect the body, has been reinterpreted as a small ring that follows the shape of the finger.
While the natural antler has organic curves, the form itself is architectural.
The organic material grown in nature and the armor-like contours shaped by human hands are layered within a single form.
The pattern on the surface is burned in by hand, one piece at a time, using a soldering iron.
The pattern is neither printed uniformly in advance nor engraved.
Because heat is applied directly to the natural antler, the color and depth of the charring, as well as the way the lines spread, vary according to the density and fibers of each area.
Even when the hand moves in the same way, the pattern will never be exactly the same.
Although it is drawn by hand, the final expression is entrusted to the material itself.
Nor can every antler be used.
Even among approximately 20 antlers, only about one is suitable for making rings.
Furthermore, only around three rings can be made from that single antler.
Rather than forcing the material to fit the desired form, we select and use only the sections suited to an armor ring, considering their thickness, curves, and texture.
The hard, architectural form of armor is made from antler that originally grew as part of a living animal.
Heat is then applied, leaving the accidental charring and subtle irregularities intact.
This is Pray Ring, shaped by both nature and the human hand.
