Ophiuchi Tanzanite Ring

£31,247.00

Tanzanite, Diamonds, Palladium White Gold and Yellow Gold

The Ophiuchi Tanzanite Ring is a striking piece that marries contemporary design with the allure of rare gemstones. Captivated within an emerald-shaped gold enclosure, clasped by four cat-claw prongs, lies a collector's treasure—the enigmatic grey tanzanite. Renowned for its rare pleochroism, this gem reveals a spectrum of lavender, azure, and crimson hues against its tranquil, ashen canvas. 

A striking contrast emerges with the dome structure, crafted from luminous palladium gold, positioned atop a gold bridge formed by three arches: two flank and one embrace the finger. Adding a contemporary twist, an asymmetrical array of inverted diamonds arranged in an asymmetric pattern dances upon the dome. This unexpected detail gives the piece a fresh, almost abstract quality. It's a design that speaks to the modern collector, combining sophistication with an artful exploration of form.
