Taj
Taj is a finger ring made of 18 karat gold, diamonds and pearls. The form is inspired by an octagonal lotus flower pond placed upside down. The shape also refers to the architecture of the Taj Mahal, which is known for symmetry and plant motifs. A euro shank gives the ring a classical look. The ring was first modeled in three-dimensional software, then produced through computer aided design and manufacturing, casting, cleaning, stone setting and final polishing. The piece is intended for occasions such as cocktail events and weddings.
Taj Ring by Pranay Kanodia was selected as a creative example of fashion design by the A' Design Awards. Taj Ring received the Iron A' Design Award in Jewelry Design in 2020. The A' Jewelry Design Award is an international, meritocratic, just and fair design prize which rewards outstanding design of rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, brooches, pendants, cufflinks, anklets and more.
