Rose quartz at 10x8mm in a step cut is a statement in both scale and color philosophy: the stone's soft pink is not trying to impersonate sapphire or tourmaline, it is confident in its own gentle, diffused quality. The emerald cut's step facets display rose quartz beautifully - the translucent stone allows light to move through its body in a way opaque or highly included stones cannot, creating a warm glow rather than sparkle. In rhodium over sterling silver, the cool white metal creates a deliberate contrast with the warm pink stone that gives the ring its graphic quality. At just under half an inch across, the rose quartz commands the kind of attention that smaller stones in this color cannot. A contemporary colored stone ring for the wearer who wants something both soft in color and bold in scale. Available in sizes 5-10; not sizeable.
