An east-west ring orients the stone horizontally rather than vertically, with the stone's longest dimension running parallel to the finger rather than perpendicular to it. At 10x4mm in turquoise with an oxidized sterling silver setting, this ring positions the elongated stone lengthwise across the finger in a deliberately contemporary design choice - the horizontal orientation creating a ring that feels current and intentional rather than conventionally positioned. The oxidized silver's deliberately darkened finish creates maximum contrast with the turquoise blue and adds the aged, artisan character that suits Southwest materials. Non-sizeable.
