Love Pearl Ring

Soft band. Hard detail.

A ring built entirely on freshwater pearls — oval, baroque, each one slightly different from the last. At the front, two silver-plated heart charms sit face to face, pressed together. The contrast between the organic pearl and the polished metal is the whole point. Size 7, hand-finished for daily wear.

• Elements: Natural freshwater pearls, silver-plated double heart charm, elastic core
• Size: 7
• Rarity: Limited seasonal release.
• Associations: Cancer (Pearl)

Pearl has been traded longer than almost any other gem material. Archaeological records place pearl ornaments in Persian royal burials dating to the 5th century BCE, and Roman writers documented the stone’s extraordinary value — Pliny the Elder recorded that a single pearl earring worn by Cleopatra was worth the equivalent of entire regional estates. The pearl trade shaped early maritime routes across the Persian Gulf and Indian Ocean for centuries before modern navigation existed. — Kunz, G.F., The Curious Lore of Precious Stones, J.B.
