Most solitaires follow the line of your finger. This one cuts straight across. The tapered baguette stone is set perpendicular to the thin gold band, creating a clean, minimal cross that sits flat against the skin. It's a small change that makes a big difference.

The ring is built around a fine, polished 14k gold band. Set at its centre is a single, tapered baguette-cut gemstone. The stone, a deep fuchsia pink, is held in place by two small bars of gold that cap its narrowest ends. This leaves the long, faceted sides of the stone open, letting it catch light from multiple angles. The whole piece has a bright, polished finish.

We make this ring from solid 14 karat gold, not plated or filled. It's 58.3% pure gold mixed with stronger alloys for durability. This composition gives the gold a rich, warm colour that won't fade or rub off over time. It also means the ring is strong enough for daily wear, even with such a delicate band. Because it's solid gold, it’s unlikely to cause skin irritation and won’t tarnish, so you can wash your hands without worry.

This ring is barely there until it catches your eye. It's for someone who wants a stone without the bulk of a traditional setting. Because the band is so fine and the stone sits low against the finger, it layers cleanly with other rings and won't get caught on things.
