Iker Ortiz takes inspiration in the modern architectural movement and in particular, the UNESCO listed Zollverein coal mine industrial complex. Built in Bauhaus style, it is considered as a technical masterpiece of its kind and an exceptional industrial monument that represents the flourishing period of traditional heavy industries in Europe where aesthetic design of outstanding quality is just as important as function.
The iconic Zollverein colliery was primarily built to produce stainless steel therefore it is only fitting that the ring is made of the very same material. The properties of stainless steel includes strength, visual radiance and magnetically responsive, exactly how I would describe the Zollverein ring.
