"persona" Multifaceted × Arabesque Engraved Silver Ring—A Versatile Engraved Ring That Changes Expression with Every Angle｜IMULTA

“Persona,” meaning both “mask” and “personality” in Latin, is a concept proposed by psychologist Carl Jung. It refers to the external face a person presents to society and the diverse selves they hold within. IMULTA has embodied this concept in a silver ring, featuring a polyhedral form and arabesque engraving carved into multiple surfaces.

The way light hits the ring changes with the viewing angle, and the engravings on each surface reveal a different expression—this ring continues to quietly reflect the wearer's multifaceted nature and inner richness.

The ring name "persona" is inspired by the psychological concept of "persona." In Jungian psychology, persona refers to the external face a person wears according to their social role and situation. However, at the same time, people also possess multiple emotions, thoughts, and identities within themselves.

"Not being bound by a single identity or mode of expression, but possessing various aspects" — this concept is expressed through a polyhedral form that shows different expressions depending on the angle. By engraving each of the multiple surfaces, a sophisticated design is achieved where each angle presents independent beauty while maintaining overall unity as a single ring.

The form of "persona" is a polyhedral structure with multiple flat surfaces立体的に組み合わされた多面体構造です that are three-dimensionally combined by linear cuts. Unlike regular rounded rings, the distinct edges sharply reflect light. The "face" of the ring changes depending on the viewing angle, a design where a single ring possesses multiple different expressions, truly a visual embodiment of the persona concept.

Arabesque patterns are engraved on each facet of the polyhedron. Arabesque is a decorative motif where plant vines and leaves intertwine and spread continuously. It is a universal design that has been cherished across cultures from ancient Greece to the Middle East, China, and Japan. In "persona", the arabesque patterns carved into each surface create a contrast of light and shadow depending on how the light hits them, giving each facet a different ambiance. The design allows adjacent patterns to be continuous yet each to possess an independent expression, embodying the theme of multifacetedness at the engraving level.

The "persona" ring has a strong presence due to its polyhedral form and arabesque engraving. Simply adding one to an outfit with ample space, such as a simple monochrome look, a white shirt, or a knit, will make your hand the focal point of your style. Because the "persona" features intricate ornamentation, keeping other accessories as simple as possible will further highlight the ring's multifaceted nature.

"persona" also pairs exceptionally well with layering, making the most of silver's texture. Combining it with slender silver rings or natural stone rings creates depth in your hand while utilizing the polyhedral presence. Layering with IMULTA's embrace or tranquility allows for advanced coordination that highlights the contrast between the engravings' textures.

The arabesque pattern is a general term for decorative motifs where plant vines, leaves, and flowers intertwine and spread continuously. Originating from the acanthus pattern in ancient Greece, it spread through the Silk Road to the Middle East, India, China, and Japan, making it a universal design that truly connects East and West civilizations. In Japan, it widely spread as the arabesque pattern of the Edo period and is a familiar motif used in furoshiki and kimono patterns. With "persona," by individually carving the arabesque pattern into each facet of the polyhedron, a unique expression is achieved where continuous patterns nonetheless possess different expressions on each surface.

Silver925 was chosen for the polyhedral form of "persona" because silver's reflective properties make it the most compatible material for polyhedral designs. A silver polyhedron reflects light at different angles on each facet, dramatically changing the contrast of light and shadow depending on the viewing angle. Silver925 is also ideal as a material that can most precisely express the delicate lines of arabesque engraving. As it is used, the recesses of the engraving deepen, adding to the enjoyment of watching it mature over time.

"persona" is a silver ring that embodies the concept of diverse identities that people possess through its polyhedral form and arabesque engraving. Its expression changes with the viewing angle, and the engraving on each facet holds a different story — this ring continues to quietly shine, reflecting the wearer's inner richness and multifaceted nature on their finger.
