This lapis lazuli ring displays a deep navy hue, where tiny flecks of pyrite glimmer like stars in a night sky. The cabochon, with its smooth, domed surface, draws in the light and reveals the depth of colour without any faceting. Lapis lazuli has long been associated with intuition and harmony, and its noble glow suits the character of this ring, with its modern, clean-lined engagement and wedding design.

Only a small portion of the carefully inspected raw material makes it into the setting - what matters is the intensity of colour and the purity of the structure, free of discolouration and cracks. Silver and fine coloured stones are rising in price, and nature simply yields less and less quality lapis lazuli, so buying now makes sense from a price perspective. The rhodium coating over the silver is a hard metal, resistant to scratching, which keeps the ring's shine from dulling and ensures it stays clear and bright for years to come. The base is refined European silver - the 925 fineness confirms the purity of this alloy, free of nickel and harmful additives, so the metal does not irritate the skin. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark, which guarantees the origin of the metal.

This navy hue pairs beautifully with a romantic look - a lace blouse, a pastel dress with a delicate print, or a linen dress in an écru shade. On the hand, the ring has a quiet, understated presence, without excess sparkle, yet with a simple gesture, like shaking hands or brushing back your hair, the stone's navy colour immediately catches the eye. Its medium size lets the ring sit comfortably on the finger without weighing it down, making it equally suited to the day of the engagement and the day of the wedding.
