The cabochon-cut rose quartz in this ring has a soft, saturated hue that brightens into a delicate glow under light and deepens into a muted pink in shadow. The solitaire form stays classic and understated - the narrow band doesn't pull attention away from the stone, it simply guides the eye straight to its surface. This is a stacking ring that works just as well as an engagement ring, when you want colour instead of colourless sparkle. Rose quartz has long been linked with love and tenderness, and is sometimes seen as a symbol of harmonious relationships.

Before it goes into its setting, every cabochon is assessed for colour and clarity, so only a flawless stone makes it into the silver. Such careful selection at a reasonable price is a rarity today, as silver and good coloured stones keep rising in price. Refined silver of European quality completes the picture, and the 925 fineness confirms the purity of the alloy, free of nickel and harmful additives. The rhodium layer adds a hardness that pure silver lacks and protects the surface from scratching and tarnishing, so the shine lasts. The French maker's mark guarantees the quality and origin of the precious metal with which this ring is stamped.

On the hand, this small solitaire looks best in everyday wear - paired with a soft cashmere or cotton jumper, in outfits kept within a single tone of grey or beige. The rose quartz then contrasts gently with the background, giving the hand a delicate touch of colour without overdoing it. Its small size and weight of 2.9 grams mean the ring sits comfortably, never gets in the way of a gesture, and still catches the eye with every movement of the hand.
