Emerald Leaf Ring

Green, faceted, alive.

A band of deep emerald green faceted glass crystals runs around the finger on an elastic core, each rondelle cut to catch light at every angle. A glass leaf in the same green sits at the top — translucent, slightly larger, and shaped to sit flat against the hand.

• Elements: Faceted green glass crystal rondelles, glass leaf, elastic core.
• Size: One size, elastic fit.
• Rarity: Limited seasonal release.

Faceted glass beads were first produced at scale in Bohemia during the 17th century, when glassmakers developed cutting techniques borrowed from gemstone polishing. The emerald green variety became one of the most traded bead colors across European and African markets, valued for its resemblance to precious stones at a fraction of the cost.
