Not a ring — an exploration. I was testing ways of working with gold leaf, seeing what it could do in different contexts, different applications. I was not focused on making something. I was simply making.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd then I looked up and there it was.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is how art actually works — not in the focused, deliberate moments of intention, but in the ones where your hands are moving and your mind is somewhere else and suddenly the thing in front of you is finished and extraordinary and completely itself. I love the piece most for exactly that reason. It arrived as a surprise. The best ones always do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe amethyst cluster is small by comparison to some of the stones I work with — but small is entirely the wrong word for what it does in this setting. Set into a hand-sculpted body finished with 24 carat gold leaf, its deep violet crystal points rising from the dark sculptural form, it becomes a ring that takes over a hand completely. Statement is too small a word for it. It is a declaration worn on a finger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gold leaf catches the light differently at every angle — sometimes barely visible, sometimes blazing — because it was applied by hand, in layers, in the particular way that only an exploratory process produces. You cannot plan that quality of surface. You can only arrive at it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmethyst works with the crown and third eye chakras — intuition, clarity, spiritual protection. Worn on the hand, it travels with you into every gesture, every conversation, every room you enter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e Raw amethyst, 24K gold leaf, hand-sculpted proprietary medium \u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 37.42 g \/ 1.32 oz \u003cstrong\u003eStone:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 cm \/ 1.18 in high, 5.5 cm \/ 2.17 in long \u003cstrong\u003eRing size:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately European 53 (US size 6.5).
