This labradorite signet ring draws the eye with a play of light across the dark, almost black surface of the stone. The cabochon cut showcases the stone's signature labradorescence - flashes of blue and steel that appear and fade with every turn of the hand. The wide, classic signet form gives the piece a confident, substantial presence, just what those who favour bold jewellery on the finger are looking for.

Each labradorite for this design is chosen individually, examined under light to find the one stone with the deepest, purest sheen. Good labradorites are becoming harder to find, and silver is rising in price, which is why today's price for this ring remains a good deal. Refined European silver, sterling silver 925 - it is the fineness mark that confirms the purity of the alloy, free of nickel and other harmful additives. The rhodium coating on the surface protects it from tarnishing and keeps the shine lasting. The metal is stamped with a maker's mark registered at the French assay office, which attests to its origin. In old beliefs, labradorite was linked to clarity of thought and confidence in one's own decisions. It is also sometimes given as a symbolic gesture of support.

For a family celebration, the labradorite signet ring pairs beautifully with an elegant dress in cool grey or deep purple - the warm light of candles brings out the blue flashes in the stone. A hand wearing this ring naturally draws glances during a handshake or a toast. Classic accessories - small earrings, a slim bracelet - won't steal its attention, since it's the stone that leads the eye. The big size of the signet and its weight of 4.9 g give it a clear presence on the finger, without any heaviness in everyday wear.
