Pearl in Lotus Seed Pod Ring

A pearl nestles in on of the lotus seed openings in this hand-carved silver ring. The silver reflects light like liquid, as its carved surface is not entirely flat, but rather filled with subtle organic curves. Modern shadowbox.

Seeds represent promise, potential, and growth. This ring is a sweet reminder of the possibilities we all possess.

Approximately 3/4 inches diameter, 1/4 inch in depth. One-of-a-kind. Signed on the inside of the ring.
