A faceted aquamarine combines a cool, watery blue with the minimalist form of a solitaire ring. This stone was chosen by hand - many specimens were examined before one was selected for this setting, prized for its clarity and depth of colour. The slender, understated band doesn't draw attention away from the stone, keeping the form light and distinctly modern on the hand. Aquamarine has long been associated with the calm of the open sea, and its clear blue evokes exactly that image.

Prices for silver and quality coloured stones keep rising, so a carefully selected aquamarine at this price is a sound choice today. The setting is made of refined European silver, sterling silver 925, free of nickel and other irritating additives, which matters for sensitive skin. The rhodium layer is hard and scratch-resistant, keeping the metal's shine clear for a long time, with no signs of tarnishing. The ring is stamped with a maker's mark registered at the French assay office, which attests the origin of the metal.

For everyday wear, this ring pairs well with a linen shirt in a natural shade or a loose cotton sweater - the simple solitaire form needs no extra embellishment to stand out on the hand. In the gesture of brushing back your hair or holding a cup, the aquamarine's blue naturally catches the light. Its very small weight, 2.4 g, means the ring wears lightly and doesn't get in the way of daily activities. This is a size and form made for everyday wear, not just for special occasions.
