A light-emitting jewelry piece includes a gemstone, a head, and a mounting. The head is configured to interconnect the gemstone to the mounting. The mounting is arranged to secure the light-emitting jewelry piece to a person or a personal adornment.
IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS
An image pickup apparatus includes a body including an attachment member for attachment, a ring-shaped rotating member rotatable relative to the body, and an imaging unit configured to capture an image. An imaging angle of view as an imaging parameter is changed by rotating the rotating member.
Decorative Composite Body Comprising a Solar Cell
There is proposed a decorative element containing (a) a transparent gemstone with a faceted surface comprising convex curved regions, (b) a wavelength-selective layer, and (c) a photovoltaic cell.
CUSTOMIZED JEWELRY DESIGN BY TRANSPOSITION OF DATES INTO TIMES
The present invention provides customized jewelry designs for pendants, earrings bracelets, rings and other pieces of jewelry that display a specific time or specific calendar date on the piece of jewelry to commemorate a special time or calendar date. The piece of jewelry is invisibly divided into sixty segments and one or more sets comprised of two design elements are placed on the surface of the jewelry. The first design element of the one or more sets is positioned on the jewelry at one of the sixty segments and represents an hour hand of a clock. The second design element of the one or more sets also is positioned on the jewelry at one of the sixty segments and represents a minute hand of a clock. The placement of each of the one or more sets of design elements may represent one or more specific times, or the one or more specific times may represent one or more calendar days, i.e., the number of the month and the number of the day which has been transposed into one or more specific times on the clock. The jewelry includes, without limitation, pendants, earrings, bracelets or rings.
