This truly unique ring features a beautiful and rare Carmel Mountain Varicite from Nevada - it's cool turquouise color is made more beautiful by the subtle golden, brown veination and webbing. It is set in a 14k gold-fill bezel that has been textured on its edge. It is set on a heavy, sterling silver base plate that have north/south 24k gold accent beads - the warmth of the gold adds the perfect compliment to the golden brown hues in the webbing of the stone. The chunky band is made from four silver stacking rings that have been soldered together and hammered to create a rugged beauty. The width of the band measures ~ 11 mm.
Size 7 - note that wide rings tend to fit smaller than their true size (ring can be stretched up to ~1 size larger)
Carmel Mountain Variscite is a rare, vibrant green-to-caramel colored mineral. Introduced as a new-to-market material originating from near Tonopah, Nevada (though some gem and lapidary collectors note it shares characteristics or comes from the same source area as Broken Arrow variscite).
Metaphysical properties: Varicite is linked primarily to the Heart Chakra, helping to open, activate, and stabilize feelings of love, compassion, and emotional balance. Some believe it acts as a gentle, soothing agent to release past traumas, regrets, anxiety, and heavy emotional attachments, promoting mental clarity, patience, and a grounded ability to live in the present moment rather than being weighed down by stress.
