There is nothing like the saturated candy color of a tourmaline cabochon. This one is that blue-green that is sometimes called paraiba--the color of the ocean off the coast of Brazil. (Technically, a paraiba tourmaline must contain copper, and I'm not sure whether this one does or not, but it does have that classic paraiba color!)
Entirely handmade by me in my Connecticut studio.
The setting and band of this ring are made from argentium sterling silver and fine silver. Argentium sterling silver is a patented type of sterling with more pure silver than regular sterling silver (94% vs. 92.5%). It resists tarnish, finishes hard, and exhibits a bright silver color. It is hypoallergenic and contains no nickel.
