Small freshwater pearls, creamy and soft, arranged in a V and set in dark electroformed copper. The combination is unexpected and exactly right. The warmth of the antique copper pulls the pearl's undertones toward ivory and gold, away from the cold of silver settings. This is a chevron ring that reads as both timeless and entirely current.

Pearl is associated with wisdom, purity, and emotional balance. It is the birthstone for June. Wear it when you want something elegant that doesn't try too hard.

Why Pearl

Freshwater pearls are grown in mussels in freshwater rivers and lakes, primarily in China. Unlike saltwater pearls, freshwater pearls are often cultivated without a bead nucleus, which means the pearl grows more organically and produces a slightly irregular, uniquely textured surface. No two pearls are identical. Pearl is the birthstone for June and has been used in jewelry for thousands of years across cultures. No mystical claims. Just a beautiful, organic material with a very long history.

How This Handmade Pearl Ring Is Made

Each pearl is hand-selected for surface quality and color before being set into an electroformed copper band built up around it through an electrolytic process. No casting, no molds. The copper grows directly around each pearl, creating a setting completely unique to each piece. The chevron shape is formed by hand, and the antique finish deepens the oxidation to bring out the electroformed texture.

A Note on Stone Variation

Freshwater pearls are organic and each piece will vary in surface texture, shape, and undertone. Your ring will be similar to the one shown but entirely one of a kind.

Care

Pearls are sensitive to acids, perfumes, and chemicals. Put this ring on last, after all lotions, perfumes, and hairspray. Wipe gently after wearing. Remove before swimming, bathing, or any activity involving water or chemicals. Store dry and separately from harder stones that could scratch the surface.
