40th Birthday Ring

| 6 Comments


18k white and yellow gold, black opal, and diamond

I have been trying to get a decent photograph of this ring for a months but I give up for now. It doesn't want to be photographed in focus, so you'll have to look at it slightly burred.

This was presented to me by Tod as a gift on my 40th birthday. We worked with my jewelry designer friend Mami Katsuki and discussed the possibilites during a long rambling conversation over lunch. She took the napkin we'd all sketched on, along with the stones I bought at a jewelry fair, and created this from my ideas of orbits and connections.

I'm so pleased with it that I'm a little bit afraid to wear my precious bauble. But in the spirit of not "saving" good things, I will try to wear it frequently until it is just a comfortable part of my wardrobe.
