A freeform cabochon of rainbow calcilica anchors this ring, its banded layers of crimson, cobalt, turquoise, emerald, and ochre running across the stone like the strata of a painted desert. Every stripe tells a story, and no two stones are ever cut alike, making this piece one of one in the truest sense.
The cabochon is hand bezel set in sterling silver, with the bezel curving organically around the stone to follow its natural shape. Two small 14kt gold filled balls sit at the top and bottom of the setting, adding warm contrast to the cool silver and a quiet hint of luxury. The handmade sterling silver band keeps the look clean and modern, letting the stone do all the talking.
Rainbow calcilica is loved for its bold, joyful color palette and its unusual layered structure. It's the kind of stone that pairs effortlessly with neutrals and turns even a simple outfit into something worth a second look.
