The Mokoro Ring – Opaline

There are no engines on the water in the Okavango, so a mokoro crossing at night makes almost no sound. What you see is the moon on the channel and the shape of the boat moving through it.

That is this ring. One opal, treated, cut to twenty millimeters and tapered to a hull, set low into a plain band of sterling silver with rhodium finishing.

Opal is milky and half translucent, and it is not one color. Blue, green and pink move through it depending on where the light falls, so the stone keeps changing as your hand does while the silver around it stays still. It is the only stone in the chapter that behaves this way.

The band is narrow and the stone sits low, so it reads as one long line across the finger rather than something raised above it. Under four grams, with nothing standing proud enough to catch.

Sizes 5 to 12. If your size is not in stock, we will make it for you and ship it in about four weeks.
