Kotik Precious Metals

I just came across these rings designed by Yoav Kotik, a graduate of Bezalel academy of art and design in Jerusalem. To the every day consumer, Kotik's materials are useless recycling bin contents; metal bottle caps and scraps from global beverage companies. Kotik's team collects these 'precious metals' and give them a total re-birth, setting them into beautiful and stylish rings. Kotik Design Wishlisted! Kotik Design
