As summer twilight descends, remnant thunderheads limned by the silvery light of the setting sun turn the western sky shades of amethyst and violet. With this ring, Wings brings the stormclouds to our level, pairing off domed round cabochons of deepest amethyst atop a sterling silver bad. A length of sterling silver half-round wire forms the band, its convex surface stamped freehand in a layered traditional motif of directional arrows pointing inward toward each other at the base of the hoop. At the top, two large domed cabochons of deep purple amethyst are set opposite each other in saw-toothed bezels, violet depths catching passing rays of light. The ring is wrought in a self-adjusting “wrap” style that permits the wearer to tighten it until the stones pass each other, or wear it as shown, with gems seated opposite. Band is 3/16″ across; cabochons are 3/8″ across (dimensions approximate). As shown here, the open band is sized at roughly 8.5, and can be tightened to a smaller size (or opened wider for a larger size, with stones set further apart). Other views shown below.
