This amber ring pairs a bold, contemporary form with the warm colour of fossilised resin. The cabochon cut opens up the interior of the stone without sharp edges - held to the light, it reveals flashes ranging from honey yellow to deep, dark purple, while the amber itself stays fully clear. Amber has long been associated with sunny warmth and success, which makes it a popular choice of stone for an engagement ring. The very big size of the stone means the piece sits well on the hand and reads clearly from every angle.

Each piece of amber in this collection was examined against the light and hand-picked beforehand for its colour and clarity. Silver and good coloured stones get more expensive year after year, so amber of this quality at a reasonable price is harder to come by today. The setting is rhodium silver, refined silver 925 of high alloy purity, stamped with the French maker's mark - a guarantee of the quality and origin of the precious metal. The rhodium layer protects the surface against tarnishing and scratches, so the ring needs little cleaning and keeps its shine over time despite everyday wear.

In summer, the ring pairs well with a linen dress in light beige or ecru - the warm colour of the amber lifts a muted outfit and draws the eye with every movement of the hand. It also works with a simple cotton shirt with rolled-up sleeves, when you want to keep the overall look light and relaxed. The large, striking cabochon-cut stone gives the hand a clear, warm focal point, visible in both sunlight and evening light.
