A delightfully elegant ring
Friends who have commented on this gorgeous ring agree that the piece deserves a more accurate descriptor than "cocktail ring." It could easily be a wedding / commitment ring for an individual who is brave enough to break from tradition. The term "cocktail ring" recalls images of flashy stones, bordering on garish. This lovely pale green stone set in a highly polished sterling band, is the opposite of garish; the artisans have skillfully selected, cut, and polished the jade, showcasing its appealing, discrete beauty. The stone is precisely as pictured in the photo in terms of color and proportion, but it is highly polished, as befits the setting. Many rings with semi-precious stones can be thick and clunky, with rough edges and sloppy soldering. This piece was masterfully created, with not a rough edge to be found. My complements to the talented Jimenez family.

A classic in jade!
I have always loved jade, ever since my mother gave me a jade ring when I turned 16. Sadly, the simple jade sphere of my old ring loosed and dropped out somewhere, which really bothered me. It's wonderful to select my own jade ring from the fabulous array of designs, knowing that it's from a talented and independent artisan who is treated with dignity and respect. This gives me great satisfaction.
