Deep, softly matte black onyx cut as a cabochon gives this ring a bold, modern character. The stone shows a uniform, dense black without streaks or translucent patches - and it's precisely this purity of colour that determines its quality. In old craft tradition, onyx was associated with strength, endurance and self-assurance, which suits a ring meant for everyday wear as well as special occasions. The simple, sturdy setting doesn't draw attention away from the stone - it's the onyx that leads the eye with every movement of the hand.

Each onyx chosen for this ring is selected so that the colour and sheen stay even across the whole surface of the cabochon, and with a natural stone this kind of consistency isn't common. Silver and good stones are rising in price, so buying at this price today makes sense. The stone is set in refined European silver plated with a layer of rhodium, which protects the surface from tarnishing and scratches, keeping the shine bright for years to come. The 925 fineness confirms the purity of this alloy - free of nickel and other harmful additives, so the metal is safe to wear without worrying about skin reactions. The silver is stamped with the French maker's mark, attesting the origin of the metal, which matters especially for a wedding and engagement ring meant to last for years.

The big, striking cabochon works well in the evening - worn with a little black dress and a silk blouse, the onyx doesn't disappear into a muted look, it clearly stands out from it. Small earrings are enough to complete the look, so all the attention stays on the hand and the ring. Its modern form means this design works equally well as everyday jewellery and as a ring for a special occasion - an engagement or a wedding, where a simple, striking gesture is what counts.
