Deep, matte-gleaming black onyx in a cabochon cut gives this ring a serious, decisive character. As the hand turns, its black is never flat - the surface of the stone plays with a subtle shimmer that fades and returns with every gesture. The modern, smooth setting doesn't distract, keeping the whole composition clean and expressive. This is a design that works well as an engagement ring for someone who values understated elegance over the classic sparkle of a diamond.

Each onyx for this collection is inspected individually before it reaches the jeweller's hands - what matters is a deep, uniform black free of discolouration. This selective approach keeps the stone's quality high while the price stays reasonable. Silver and good stones are steadily rising in price, so buying this ring today makes financial sense. The setting is made of refined European sterling silver 925, free of nickel and harmful additives, meaning the metal does not irritate the skin and can be worn every day without worry. A rhodium layer protects the surface against tarnishing and scratches, so the ring keeps its shine for a long time and needs minimal care. The French maker's mark guarantees the quality and origin of the precious metal with which this piece is stamped. In jewellery tradition, onyx has been associated with strength, endurance and confidence - hence its special place among rings with engagement significance.

Styled for the office, this ring pairs well with a smooth shirt and a jacket in a muted shade of charcoal or navy - the black of the onyx underscores the calm, composed character of such an outfit. It also works well with a simple turtleneck sweater, where the hand wearing the ring is naturally put on display. The very big size of the stone makes the onyx catch the eye with every gesture, needing no extra ornamentation around it.
