Description

Pahlavi – Handmade Paper Mache Ring This unique ring is crafted from papier-mâché, a lightweight and durable material made from paper pulp and a binder. The ring’s design features an authentic Pahlavi coin, adding a touch of historical significance. Despite being lightweight, papier-mâché is surprisingly strong and resilient. To enhance its durability and water resistance, the ring has been treated with a sealant. However, it is important to note that while the sealant provides some protection against moisture, excessive contact with water should be avoided to preserve the ring’s integrity. The band of the ring is also made from papier-mâché, ensuring a comfortable fit. The ring is meticulously hand-painted with liquid gold leaf and liquid silver leaf, giving it a luxurious and eye-catching appearance.

My name is Helia Dashtaray. In 2012, I graduated in Literature and Italian Translator from the University of Tehran. In 2013, I started working in marquetry art and In 2014 became familiar with papier-mâché art. I am currently active in sculpture, paintings, and handmade accessories using papier-mâché / paper mache art. My experiences in sculpture, marquetry, design, crochet, handmade paper making, thread and needle art, quilling, as well as origami from my childhood, have helped me in designing and creating accessories. I have endeavored to bring diversity to papier-mâché earrings, using fabric, printed paper, handmade paper, leather and gemstones.... Papier-mâché accessories, due to their paper material, have vibrant colors, are waterproof, and draw inspiration from the world of fashion and nature. I'm glad that through paper recycling, I can contribute to environmental conservation. I hope to introduce more people to papier-mâché art through my students and my YouTube channel(helias_art) I have two artistic brands: Helias_art for sculpture and home decor with papier-mâché, and Helia.dashtaray for handmade accessory making, including earrings, clutch bags, rings, necklaces, and bracelets.
