This ring with two labradorites brings a modern, calm character to the hand. The cabochon cut shows off the labradorescence - a blue, at times steely flash that appears against the dark background with every movement of the hand. Jewellers have long associated this stone with peace of mind and self-confidence, and the ring's form - simple, without unnecessary embellishment - captures that character well. The delicate band doesn't draw attention away from the stones, so it's the stones that lead the eye.

Both labradorites in this piece have an even colour and a similarly intense flash, which makes the whole look cohesive, though a natural stone always keeps its own individual pattern. Good labradorites rise in price along with precious metals, so buying now makes sense price-wise. They are set in rhodium-plated 925 silver - the rhodium layer protects the surface from tarnishing and scratches, keeping the shine intact for years. This is refined European silver, 925 fineness, free of nickel and other harmful additives, so it doesn't cause allergies or skin irritation. The silver bears the French maker's mark, which attests to the metal's origin.

Its small size and weight of 2.5 grams mean the ring sits lightly on the finger, almost unnoticeable to the touch, though visually it makes a strong statement. For an evening out it works well with a little black dress and a silk blouse - a understated outfit lets the stones' blue flash draw all the attention. The kind of promise this form carries makes it a fitting gift tied to an important decision or a new chapter. A touch of jewellery on the hand is enough to complete the rest of the look.
