i’m jealous of kyeok kim
Um. I love this. Beautiful, delicate rings… made of soap!
Korean artist Kyeok Kim has created these lovely pieces as part of her Jewellery as Second Skin series. The idea is that as you wash your hands, the ring slowly disappears leaving your hands smelling like a drop of perfume. It is meant to be “… a sensory experience [that becomes] an unconscious ornament.” Now, don’t get me wrong, I would love an unconscious ornament… but these rings are so gorgeous, I might just opt for never washing my hands while wearing them. Not the point, I know, but I just don’t think I could watch them dissolve!
oh no! I would never wash my hands. They are way too beautiful to disappear. xo
These are beautiful! Wow! I kind of love the idea of having a bit of soap with me all the time. There is something even more beautiful about it’s lack of permanence.
absolutely! although it would be so hard to actually use it… i’d want to keep it forever!
Sooo cool!
What a wonderful new meaning to “soap ring”

Where can I buy?
i’m not sure that you can… i believe these were done for a specific show. but don’t quote me on that! {i just haven’t been able to find any info saying that you can buy them}
How much are the soap rings?
Hi I saw your rings I like them a lot how much are they I want to buy them for me and my sister and my mom
Are these rings available . Great gifts
I thought, when I saw the Pin on Pinterest, that it was resin. My daughter has metal allergies, so we were entranced. We’re disappointed that it’s soap, but also intrigued, and possibly inspired…
