Visual Aesthetics

The objects value to me
OK now I know this object looks pretty dull and boring but to me this is something really special to me and the thought of losing is unimaginable. I received this ring for my 18th birthday from my grandparents. I've had it for nearly two years now

however it already has a great deal of sentimental value to me. To me this ring represents my grandparents showing how proud they are of me not to mention how much they care.

Function

I feel that the main function of this ring is to make your hand/finger look elegant. Another way to describe the ring is that it decorates the hands giving out the impression that the finger is longer and thinner.


Aesthetics


When someone first looks at the ring, the sparkle in the diamond is what catches the

audience eye. The diamonds on the base of the ring is what give the ring its beauty and glamour. When it is next to a light it shows off the smooth texture the the white gold has, this also adds a shine to the ring. There is a slight thinning around the bottom of the ring which can give a worn effect but this is covered by the finger.

Visually when someone looks at it close up, the detail within the base of the ring is minimal but it also doesn't take the attention away from the diamonds that are meant to show off the beauty of the ring.

I tried to show the glamour within the ring by using some back lighting how it is not as strong as I wanted it to be however the image on the left does show how it makes a finger look elegant, slimmer and also creates a false impression of the size of the finger.
