The shank is built from the Heartseeker character skin's bow and arrow.

For the setting, Takayas formed the prongsholding the sapphire using the Poro horns. He didn't want to interpret thehornshape too literally becauseit would have looked very blocky and heavy, so he rounded out the horns to match the organic rounded heart shapes in the band.

Setting the sapphire itself was a very delicate process because if Takayas hadhammered the prongs too hard, the horns would have been flattened out and lost their shape. Thankfully, the setting went smoothly without a hitch!
