Lovingly hand-mined and polished Scottish Highland Marble adjustable ring set in 925 sterling silver, with a small sparkling Peridot (around 3mm diameter) incorporated into the swirl of the design.
Marble measures roughly 8mm diameter; ring size is set at US 9/UK S but can be adjusted a few sizes either way without compromising the design. Comes in a presentation box.
Please note - the ring you receive, although a very similar shade of green, may not be the exact ring in the photographs.
At Two Skies, we think that; "To own a piece of Scottish Highland Marble is to own a piece of Scotland itself. By purchasing this beautiful ring you are connected not just to Scotland, but to its age old traditions and folklore."

Scottish Highland Marble
Highland Marble is mined by hand by Two Skies in the Scottish Highlands and the West coast islands. Over 800 million years ago, limestone was formed under the oceans of Scotland. As plant life of the time died and settled on the sea bed the life-sustaining chlorophyll from these plants, coupled with the metamorphosis of the limestone, resulted in what we now know as Scottish Marble. Scottish Marble has been prized by fishermen for centuries. On the Isle of Iona they would not leave port without their lucky green gems. It has been used by healers to help the body return to a time unhindered by the stresses and pollution of modern times.
