The Phoenix Carnelian Gemstone Ring is a ring in 925 sterling silver carrying the phoenix, the mythical bird that burns and rises again from its ashes, with a cut carnelian in a strong orange-red at the center. The silver around the stone is worked into a swirling pattern rather than a plain setting.Carnelian is translucent enough to hold light inside it, so the center of the ring reads as fire while the silver curls around the stone like smoke leaving it. The phoenix stands for renewal after destruction, worn as a symbol rather than as a religious piece.
