Paraiba Tourmaline Ring

A true lover of precious gems, this client purchases rare stones and entrusts ray to design and create one of a kind pieces. 

Paraiba Type Tourmaline (aqua). This precious stone is the result of a combination between boron and copper. The high concentration of copper is responsible for the highly coveted radiant blue and green hues in the Paraiba stone. This specific stone has a natural syngenetic inclusion which are inclusions that are formed together with the growth of the main crystal - truly unique and created by nature. 

Ray created a 18k yellow gold crownwork nest and bezel set the stone which was open underneath so it can be appreciated from all angles. True beauty of this stone is ageless, like the design.

“Jewelry is something that takes a long time to get right. Integrating technical skills into one’s own sense of style and design occurs over time. Jewelry isn’t seasonal, it’s evolutionary.”
