Delivery Estimate"On this occasion I wanted to create an innovative ring not only with a design, but with a great cultural story of what jade meant to my Maya ancestors. They prized jade over gold, and associated it with life, fertility and power. Jade was reserved for rituals, war and art," says Gabriel Silva. He crafts the sterling silver ring with oxidized contrasts for an antiqued look.

"Beautiful delicate ring"
Would love to get this ring same shape but much bigger. But the dark green jade is very unique, like a tropical forest at night. Love it

"Not what I expected"
This was described as a combination finish. What I received was very shiny and looked mass produced. Not what I expected at all.

"This one takes the prize."
This ring arrived quickly. It is fully filled beneath the stone. The shape and color of the jade is spectacular. The workmanship on the silver is unsurpassed. It is a true heirloom piece, and the price is very fair. 5 Stars for Gabriel Silva!! Get yourself one because you cannot have mine.
