Small Open Aquamarine Ring

Natural aquamarine copper open ring, handmade with love and care. Size of gemstones are 6-8mm.

Please note rings are lovingly manufactured in your chosen ring size, please allow 3-5 working days for production.

The gemstones we use are raw and unpolished, so they might have some” imperfections”. (In our opinion it adds to the beauty and individuality of each piece!) 

Each piece comes beautifully packaged, ready for gifting, with the relevant gemstone info card with thank you note and care instructions. 

Jewellery pieces are created by a process called copper electroforming, which allows for the deposition of copper electrolytes over several hours in a copper/acid solution. This results in unique and unpredictable textures, as the entire process is organic.

Please be aware that the colour of copper darkens over time, and the item can be cleaned using a sachet of Copperbrite and a soft cloth. (Available here)  Copper can potentially turn the skin green as it reacts with the chemicals in some skins. A coat of clear nail polish will prevent this.
