This solitaire ring with a moonstone brings a delicate, cool accent to a minimalist form. The faceted cut breaks the surface of the stone into small planes, and as the hand moves, a distinctive blue flash appears across its surface, known as adularescence. In old jewelry tradition, moonstone was associated with intuition, inner calm and meditation. The narrow band doesn't draw attention away from the stone - it's the stone that leads the eye, while the form stays quiet and clean.

For this piece, a stone with even colour and a clear, transparent structure, free of clouding, was chosen. Silver and good moonstones are rising in price, and finding a specimen of this clarity is getting harder, so this purchase makes price sense today. The ring is made of refined European silver 925, coated with a layer of rhodium that protects the surface from tarnishing and loss of shine. The alloy contains no nickel, the metal responsible for allergic reactions, so the ring can be worn without worrying about skin irritation. The silver is signed with the French maker's mark, attesting to the origin of the metal. At 2.3 grams, the ring is barely noticeable on the finger.

The minimalist form pairs well with everyday knitwear - a soft sweater in cool grey or a cotton turtleneck in a monochromatic outfit. The blue flash of the moonstone brings life to muted, solid colours and is best seen with a simple movement of the hand. It also works well as an engagement ring for couples who prefer a subtle stone over a classic diamond. The clean line of the band and the striking, cool blue of the stone make a ring that's easy to wear every day.
