A jade cabochon opens up this ring like a small, smooth pane of green - depending on the angle of light, the hue shifts from a muted grey-green to a deeper, more saturated tone, and the stone's surface reflects light softly, without sharp glints. The very big size of the stone and the full, bold silhouette give the whole piece a boho character, while the shape of the band and the way the stone is set still reveal a vintage touch. This is a ring that works equally well as a wedding and engagement proposal - it combines the weight of symbolism with the lightness of a form meant for everyday wear.

The jade for this design was chosen by hand, examining the colour and clarity of the stone before it was set - this kind of selection keeps quality high while keeping the price reasonable. Silver and good coloured stones are getting more expensive, so buying this ring today makes economic sense. The setting is made of refined silver 925 of European quality - an alloy free of nickel and other harmful metal additives that does not irritate the skin even with long wear. The piece is stamped with the French maker's mark, which attests the origin of the silver.

A light, flowing linen dress in pale beige or off-white - against such a backdrop, the ring sets the rawness of the fabric against the organic form of the stone and does not get lost on the hand, despite its size. It also looks good with a simple cotton shirt with the sleeves rolled up, when the hand stays the centre of attention. For a celebration, a wedding or an engagement it works just as well - a weight of 6.0 g gives a clearly noticeable, but not overwhelming, presence on the finger.
