Design by customer
From idea to archive
A Curator’s proposal can become a new ARCHIVE — personalized width, new texture, or forms beyond the ring.
Beyond the ring
One archive, many forms
A single ARCHIVE can extend into earrings and necklace — your texture, carried across jewelry forms.
Frame
Choose the structure
Four FRAME structures — from a single ARCHIVE band to dual canvas — each ready to hold the texture you choose.
01
Frame 1
Standard Structure
MODAC’s most fundamental FRAME, structured around a single ARCHIVE.
- Width 4.20 / 3.70 / 3.20 mm
- Single ARCHIVE
02
Frame 2
Center Stone Structure
A FRAME that combines a center stone with an ARCHIVE texture.
- Width 3.20 mm
- Center stone + ARCHIVE
03
Frame 3
Center Canvas Structure
Places an ARCHIVE within the center CANVAS to emphasize texture.
- Width 4.20 mm
- Center canvas texture
04
Frame 4
Dual Canvas Structure
Combines two ARCHIVES within the CANVAS for layered expression.
- Width 5.50 mm
- Dual ARCHIVE canvas
Archive
Choose the texture
Text ARCHIVE captures a landscape in metal — chocolate facets, mountain peaks, reeds, rain, bark, whale tail, and more.
Archive 1
Chocolate
Small facets like a neatly divided box of chocolates.
Archive 2
Mountain Peaks
High and low ridgelines continuing without end.
Archive 4
Reeds
Slender stems gather side by side into one landscape.
Archive 4+1
Colonnade
Columns and tree trunks sharing the same vertical order.
Archive 12
Lattice
Intersecting city lines meeting light with a delicate shimmer.
Archive 13
Slant Rain
Countless slanting raindrops creating a diagonal flow.
Archive 51
Bark
Traces of time remaining in every irregular grain.
Archive 58
Whale Tail
A distinct silhouette that repeats and interlocks.
Curator

the Curator?
A Curator is not simply a consumer, but someone who participates in the design. MODAC provides the system. Curators make the choice.
