# Body Painting to Sell Fake Diamonds Modern Laser-Cut Rings by AMT Studio By Elsa Blaine | Published 2008-12-28 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/body-painting-to-sell-fake-diamonds-modern-laser-cut-rings-by-amt-studio References: [byamt](http://www.byamt.com/DiamondAcrylic.html) AMT Studio has perfectly employed the popularity of body painting to artistically display the designer’s fabulously modern rings. Alissia Melka-Teichroew creates the flat jewelry from laser-cut acrylic, silver and gold. The simple but ultra-sleek diamond ring designs come to life with the boldly painted hands modeling them. I particularly love the silver version of the diamond rings available in varying thicknesses, each size representing a different social meaning. AMT says, “The thinnest rings hint at the fragility of marriage and commitment. The largest is a sly commentary on our culture’s competitive nature when it comes to conspicuous consumption: ‘My diamond is bigger than yours.’” The stunning photography work was done by Lisa Klapp. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 67% | Activity: 16% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Body Painting:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore new ways to incorporate body painting into artistic displays and marketing campaigns. - **Laser-cut Jewelry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop innovative designs and materials for laser-cut jewelry to create unique and customizable pieces. - **Socially Meaningful Rings:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create rings that represent different social meanings and values to cater to specific customer preferences. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Combine body painting, jewelry, and fashion to create striking and avant-garde runway designs. - **Art:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborate with artists and designers to explore the intersection of body painting, jewelry, and visual arts. - **Fine Jewelry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate laser-cut techniques and unique materials into traditional fine jewelry, offering customers a modern twist on luxury items. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ultra-Chic Bridal Jewelry Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2025-engagement-ring.md) - [Brick Toy-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-gogo.md) - [Personalized Mixed-Cut Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/austen-blake.md) - [Dynamic Bold Statement Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chiyu.md) - [Dynamic Energy-Inspired Luxury Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aura-collections.md) - [Jewelry-Revealing Rock Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mschf-4.md) - [Premium Lab-Grown Diamond Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/labgrown-diamond-rings.md) - [Bread-Encrusted Gemstone Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rising-collection.md) - [Curated Wedding Jewellery Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wedding-jewellery-guide.md)
