Design Notes: The AION Collection

The geometry of continuity — reading the square maze motif that runs through our eternal line.

AION is our meditation on continuity. The square maze at its center is not a decoration — it is a diagram of return. A path that folds into itself, then folds again, until the idea of an exit becomes unimportant.

We drew the first sketches in a single weekend. The refinement took eleven months. Most of that time was spent shaving fractions of a millimeter off the maze's outer rail, trying to find the exact width at which the eye reads "infinite" rather than "ornate."

The enamel is hand-laid in three thin coats, fired between each pass. The blue is mixed fresh for every batch; we have never published the formula, and we never will. It is the one element of AION that belongs to our atelier alone.
