Indian Ring with White Cat's Eye

A pearly cat’s eye, held up in a ring of tiny gold beads.

This gold ring with a white cat’s eye was made in India. Gold rings set with cabochon stones are a long-established form of adornment in India, worn as ornament and sometimes for the stones’ associations with protection. A round, milky white stone sits in a raised bezel edged with a fine beaded border. The shoulders step down into the band with raised, textured segments. The gold has a warm, rich yellow tone and a hand-finished look.

A small ring with a quiet glow, and a larger personality than it lets on.
