The design concept of "Sustainable Romance" transforms the commitment to environmental sustainability into an artistic expression. The gesture of a marriage proposal symbolizes humanity's dedication to a sustainable future for the Earth, extending the symbolism of the wedding ring—from eternal love to the responsibility of recycling natural resources and protecting the environment.

The main structure is crafted from recycled stainless steel and reprocessed colorful glass stones. Its form has undergone numerous refinements to ensure that every detail is meticulously captured through handcrafted sculpting techniques and 3D technology. The hand gesture signifies the ongoing care for the planet’s future, with each colored glass stone representing a response to climate change. A wedding, as a sacred contract, carries the same weight of responsibility as the love it symbolizes. Humanity has coexisted with the Earth for thousands of years, and through this work, the designer reminds us of the obligations we must uphold. From rough recycled materials to a refined piece of art, every step reflects respect and responsibility toward nature, achieving a harmonious balance between environmentalism and artistic expression.
