About Hring eftir hringIn Icelandic, Hring eftir hring means “what goes around, comes around”, referring
to things that have a tendency of repeating themselves. This common Icelandic
saying became the working title for Steinunn’s fi rst jewellery collection.
Later on, the collection was named Fairy Tale and the working title became the
name of the brand. The Fairy Tale collection has grown since it fi rst came on the
market and is now available in various stores in Iceland, Denmark, Norway and
the Netherlands. In 2011 the company created its second collection named Tea
Party.
About SteinunnSteinunn studied civil engineering and worked for Batteríið Architects until 2008.
Whilst studying she took classes in oil painting and drawing at the Reykjavík
School of Visual Arts. In 2008 she quit her job and found the urge to nurture her
creative side and follow her real passion. She began a diploma program called
Prisma at the Iceland Academy of the Arts where the main courses were arts and
philosophy.
During her studies the fi rst jewellery collection, Fairy Tale, was born.
After fi nishing Prisma, Steinunn founded her company Hring eftir hring.

About the Fairy Tale collection
The Fairy Tale Collection is inspired by Icelandic nature and it’s extreme and beautiful colours. The idea
came to Steinunn one day when looking out her kitchen window, she noticed the fi rst leaves of spring.
She translated the form she saw into what is now known as the Ring of Leaves.
“I look at each ring as a bouquet of leaves. That’s why each ring is unique and to me more like a small piece
of art, rather than a replication of the same form. The bouquets differ in size, shape and colour. ”
Steinunn Vala
Owner and designer of Hring eftir Hring

About the Tea Party collection“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is because everything would be what it isn’t. And contrary-wise; what it is it wouldn’t be, and what it wouldn’t be, it would. You see?”
- Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll -
The Tea Party Collection is inspired by the wonderful and timeless story of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
by Lewis Carroll. In particular the illustrations and drawings by John Tenniel from the original edition (1865).
The Mad Tea Party became the basis for the collection. When the unbirthday of the Mad Hatter is celebrated
and the scene is full of tea cups and pots made of white porcelain, contrasts, bowties and weirdness.
The Do Do Dove ring was created in collaboration with Dental technicians. The Bow tie ring and necklace
were created in collaboration with Muggi, a furniture maker who six years ago started making wooden bow
ties for men to wear instead of the traditional bow tie. Together Steinunn and Muggi created a new use for
the wooden bow by shrinking it in size to fi t the fi nger.
