Superb Onyx Micromosiac Curio Fantasy Ring
The perfect whimsical adornment! Our fantasy at the Curio is that every jewelry lover can own a jewel (or 12!) that bridges the past into the present day. Curio fantasy jewels are just that: objects that marry a historical object, with Elle’s imagination towards how they should enjoy the next leg of their lives – creating a new situ for a historical object to be enjoyed within!
Curio Fantasy objects are each one-of-a-kind, and can never be recreated. This gorgeous ring features a botanical micro-mosaic from circa 1870s set in a gorgeous and striking onyx stone. It is truly a mini wearable portrait for your hand!
Also notable is the iconic so-called “Buckingham” shank, based on a 19th century English design. We have re-envisioned this Victorian design to suit modern sensibilities, casting our shank into a perfect circle for the hand.
Rare and truly unique, this ring would make a wonderful addition to any jewelry connoisseur’s collection!
