2 Carat Hand Cut Mexican Fire Opal Leaf and Twig Engagement Ring in 14k Yellow Gold by Dawn


I have waited exactly two years staring at my faceting tools until now. Creating our own hand cut gemstones is a milestone for me, it's like everything I envisioned for my hand sculpted designs has finally come full circle. I truly hope you see my vision in giving you a true one-of-a-kind ring.

Each design was created in wax by me to mimic little twigs with tiny branches holding a artistically hand cut in our studio.

The Band is cast in 14k Yellow Gold with textured bark markings and delicate leaf design.
Our Refined Gold and Gemstones are all Cruelty-Free.
Your ring will come with a black velvet pouch and a black ring box. 
Why have I chosen to hand cut our Gemstones:
Gemstone material that has not been extensively cut and polished is referred to as "Rough".
Rough material that has been hammered to knocked off the brittle fractured edges is said to have been cobbled.

So, what I have chosen to do is remove the brittle fractures by hand polishing our rough gemstones in our studio here in North Carolina and allowing a longer lifespan of the stone for our customers. A stone that has been hand cut is a stronger stone and in my opinion a safer stone to have.

To keep the integrity of the rough gemstones, we only remove the brittle edges and keep true to the unique shape of the original rough gemstone. This way we can create a beautiful artistically cut gemstone that is still Cruelty-Free but very unique in shape.

This is my way of giving you a true one-of-a-kind hand sculpted and hand cut ring.
