The jade cabochon pairs a deep, saturated green with a smooth, slightly domed surface that catches the light differently as the hand turns. This solitaire and promise ring, in the spirit of solitaire commitment, has a simple band with a relaxed, boho character - the metal doesn't compete for attention, leaving it to the stone. The small size keeps the form sitting close to the finger, without unnecessary bulk.

Each piece of jade is inspected individually before it's set - what matters is the stone's colour and clarity, not chance. Good stones of this quality are rising in price, just like silver, so today's price on this ring makes sense. Refined 925 silver of European quality is coated with a layer of rhodium that protects the surface against tarnishing, dulling and fine scratches, so the shine lasts. The alloy contains no nickel or other harmful additives, so the metal doesn't irritate the skin. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark, which establishes its origin and is registered with the assay office.

For the office, it works well with a smooth shirt and a jacket in muted grey or beige - the green of the jade brings life to a calm palette without disrupting the formal tone of a meeting. Outside work, it looks good with a simple sweater and loose trousers, where the boho form of the band plays off the natural movement of the hand. It weighs 2.3 grams, so it wears lightly throughout the day. This is a ring that pairs the austerity of silver with the warmth of a natural stone.
