Malachite & Spinel Sterling Silver Ring
A stunning natural Malachite gemstone with beautiful, swirling pattern textures, with a companion Black Spinel. You will receive the beautiful ring in the photos.
Though best worn at approximately size R (UK) or 8¾ (US), the ring will fit sizes O-V (UK) and 7¼-10¾ (US) due to the open design of the band, without drastically compromising the original design concept too much.
Malachite measures approximately 1611mm, Spinel around 2.5mm diameter. The wearing length (the length it spans your finger when worn) is around 35mm. Will arrive in a Two Skies giftbox with Chrysocolla & Malachite pamphlet.
Please note that white marks perceived in the photographs are merely reflections on the highly polished gemstone surface of the lights in our photography box.
Our photographer has small hands, so please check measurements as the ring may look smaller or larger on your own hand. As sizing rings can sometimes be a delicate business, we are happy to size the ring for you before sending - just let us know in the comments box at checkout.
RESIZING ADJUSTABLE RINGS
It is quite easy to change the size of the ring yourself as long as you go slowly and are careful, manipulating the inner area of the band with warm fingers, rather than pulling at the end sections – this will help keep a round shape too. This ring will span quite a few sizes without compromising the original design concept. Once set, it is advisable not to resize again, as silver is quite soft and can become brittle and snap if bent too frequently.
Sourced from the Congo, our Malachite started life as a stalactite - which begins as a copper-rich droplet of water on the ceiling of a cave or cavern. This is the reason our Malachite has beautiful ringlet shapes within its surface. Malachite is said to reflect the healing green of nature and is connected to trees, flowers and plants.
