A single band of jade, polished to a soft glow. No metal, no setting. Just the stone itself, shaped into something you can wear every day. Cut from natural Guatemalan jadeite, each ring carries the watery blue-green hue unique to the region's stone. It's a softer, more atmospheric color than the deep emerald associated with Burmese jade, often shifting subtly between sage, mist, and pale ocean depending on the light. The marbling moves through each band like light through water, with veins of cream and deeper green that no two rings share. Jadeite has been treasured in Mesoamerica for over three thousand years. The Olmec, Maya, and Aztec civilizations valued it above gold, carving it into masks, ornaments, and ceremonial objects, burying it with kings, and trading it across vast distances long before European contact. Guatemala remains one of only two places on earth where jadeite is found in any quantity, and the stone in this ring comes from the same region those ancient civilizations once mined. This is a limited edition piece. Once these rings sell out, they will not be restocked. Each ring is hand-selected, with a band width that measures between 2-4mm and color and marbling that vary subtly from piece to piece. What you receive will be slightly different from what you see photographed — naturally, beautifully so. Show more
