Green Tourmaline Architectural Platform Ring in Sterling Silver & 22k Gold

This ring is one of my platform designs, a completely hand-fabricated construction built piece by piece from sterling silver rather than around a conventional ring setting. The stone sits high above the finger on an open architectural framework of curved silver rails, layered platforms and individually formed details. From the front, the structure creates a strong geometric frame around the stone; turn it to the side and you can really see the complexity of the construction and the hours of metalsmithing hidden beneath it.

At the center is a beautiful faceted green tourmaline surrounded by a rich 22k yellow gold bezel. The stone has a vivid natural green that moves from deeper mossy tones to brighter flashes of fresh green as light travels across its facets. Its clean geometric shape gives the center a strong presence, while the surrounding layers of textured silver soften the edges and create an almost shield-like silhouette. The warmth of the high-karat gold against the darkened sterling silver makes that green feel even richer.

Green tourmaline is traditionally associated with growth, vitality and renewal. Closely connected with the heart, it is believed to encourage emotional balance, confidence and a greater sense of connection to the natural world. It is also associated with abundance and creative energy, bringing together the grounding qualities often attributed to tourmaline with the fresh, life-giving symbolism of green.
