This ring features a crescent or half-moon design which is a common motif in bohemian-style jewelry, symbolizing femininity and cyclical renewal. The centerpiece is a rainbow moonstone, cut in a teardrop shape, known for its adularescence—a milky sheen that moves under the surface of the stone as it catches the light, reminiscent of lunar glow.
The moonstone is securely held in place by a halo of small silver beads, which are deliberately placed to create a textural contrast to the smooth surface of the moonstone. These silver beads are treated with light oxidation, a deliberate technique that darkens the recesses of the silver, enhancing the three-dimensional quality of the beaded halo and adding an antique finish that highlights the intricate craftsmanship.
The split shank of the ring, where the band splits into two separate bands at the shoulder, adds to the design's openness and elegance. This feature also provides balance to the ring, ensuring the central stone remains the focal point.
