Wear Your Dream House On Your Finger. The Villa de Reve Collection from Philippe Tournaire.
Villa de Reve Collection from Philippe Tournaire
Inspired by the first known architectural rings discovered during the Merovingian age (500 to 752 AD), French jeweler Philippe Tournaire has created a collection of mini architectural bejeweled and gold wearable masterpieces in the form of rings and cufflinks.
In the ring below, the entire city of Paris is wrapped around your finger:

The Villa de Reve (Dream House) Collection consists of finely crafted 18k rings of buildings from various venues ranging from New York to Dubai, some as entire villages, others as homes. There are even monasteries and chateaus.
In addition to selling already cast rings, Tournaire will custom create a finely crafted replica ring of any home or villa, in your choice of golds and with or without gemstones.

From the initial drawing to the final product, Philippe Tournaire and his team plan and design each piece. All jewels are hand-made in France only.
I especially love the use of blue gemstones to represent swimming pools like the two rings shown below:
above: 18k yellow gold Chalet with sapphire
Above: Florida home in 18k yellow gold with aquamarine
Some mix various colors of 18k gold for a wonderful effect:
Others are clad with fine gemstones:
Options include high polished, matte finished, pendants, rings and the addition of gemstones:
