“To live the path of least resistance means that one is aligned with nature and with the divine expression of life itself.” – Taoist Philosophy
Taoism is a Chinese philosophy based on the writings of Lao Tzu. It emphasises living in harmony with nature and following the natural way of the universe. Taoism is often represented by water, as water yields to every obstacle in its path, yet eventually erodes each one. It finds the path of least resistance, flowing in a natural cycle of renewal. The Sarani ring features a number of intertwined bands, all separate yet following the same path. It’s a powerful reminder to be flexible when faced with obstacles in your way, just as water flows around stones in the creek. Despite the ancient origins of the quote, the ring is modern and elegant, with the option to choose your own personal message.

Order your free ring sizer.
We recommend measuring your finger size in the evening or when your hands are warm. Begin by pushing the end through the buckle to form a loop. Slide the loop onto your finger and adjust it until it fits comfortably. Make sure the ring sizer can slide easily along the entire length of your finger, including your knuckle. Your finger size will be shown by the arrow on the ring sizer. For rings with a wider band, we recommend ordering 1 size larger than your measured ring size.
