18K gold ring with sapphires and tourmalines

An 18K gold ring inspired by the artist’s visit to Carmel Beach, where strands of sea kelp lay along the shore—soft, fluid, and beautifully organic in form. The gentle movement of the kelp, combined with the sparkle of sunlight dancing across the water, evoked the brilliance of precious gemstones in cool, sea-inspired hues.

The design captures this natural elegance, translating the rhythm and shimmer of the ocean into a sculptural piece of wearable art. It is set with a carefully curated combination of gemstones:

• Green tourmaline – 1.48 carats

• Dark blue sapphire – 0.44 carats

• Light blue sapphire – 0.30 carats

• Green sapphire – 0.05 carats

• Purple sapphires – totaling 0.17 carats
