TEST

This ring is a compositional exercise in assamblage carried out by hand-moulding the 18-carat FAIRMINED yellow gold arm, which holds the pyrite with a firm and different gesture in each piece.

Working with the technique of setting stone on stone, groups of old-cut natural diamonds in claw-set Fairmined white gold are in turn set on the faces and sides of the pyrites, camouflaging themselves and generating volumes and gleams similar to those generated by the stone itself enhancing, without modifying it, the unique beauty of this fascinating mineral.

Pyrite is known as ‘fool's gold’ because of its gold-like colour and lustre. The pyrites that make up this series of rings come from the artisanal open-pit mine of Navajún (La Rioja), where natural cubic pyrites formed during the Jurassic period, contemporaries of the dinosaurs and considered the most perfect in the world.

All of them have been collected by the artist herself. The work is a homage to the marvel that nature gives us and it does so by placing the intertwined and perfect cubic formations as the protagonist, without carving or altering their extraordinary natural form.

The yellow gold we have used for your ring is 18k and FAIRMINED. The diamonds are natural and set in white gold. Both materials are completely natural and resistant to wear and tarnish. Gold jewellery should only be cleaned with non-abrasive products, preferably mild soap and water, and then dried with a soft cloth.

Pyrite, although a resilient mineral, requires attention and care, avoiding blows to the corners to preserve its splendour. Avoid abrasive chemicals that may alter its natural satin lustre.

Be aware when wearing jumpers and thin scarves, as the diamond mounts and angular vertices of pyrite may damage them.
