HoKiou is an Etsy seller that recreates whismsical fairytale scenes inside tiny glass bulbs that are fastened onto delicate jewelry rings. The ornaments feature a miniature terrarium of sorts that showcases tiny sculptures of animals, creatures and settings from surrealist worlds. The designs offer a wearable work of art that can be adorned casually thanks to its small and dainty size.
The rings are similar in style with a glass globe that is fitted with painted sculptures of different settings. These include scenes such as a goldfish swimming through water or a rainbow above a tiny house on a green hill. The sculptures are constructed by HoKiou entirely by hand and fitted inside the glass to preserve the miniature world.
