A lot of their designs are inspired by ancient symbolism and they hand-inscribe Chinese, Sanskrit, and Tibetan calligraphy onto their creations. Though most of the Me & Ro collection is made from sterling matte silver and 10 karat gold, they also have a special collection of 18K gold and platinum. They make use of precious and semiprecious stones like brown diamonds, andalusite, antique Tibetan coral, turquoise, Brazilian opals, rutilated quartz, and lapis lazuli, all of which are set by hand.
