The initial conversation is free, online by video or in the atelier at Rheinsprung 10 in Basel.<\/p><\/details>\r\n      <details><summary>How does the RetinaScan work and is it safe?<\/summary><p>A special camera photographs the retinal pattern in about a minute, contact-free and completely harmless, similar to an image taken at the eye doctor.

An average pair of rings comes to about CHF 10&#8202;000. All figures are starting prices and depend on the current precious metal price, the weight and the execution.
