    Representative material visualization · Appearance may vary

    Black Obsidian is a natural material selected for its slate visual character. Surface, color and pattern can vary with the cut, finish and individual piece; the product photographs and measurements describe the item you will receive.

    In this piece: a pear-shaped black obsidian, about 8 by 10 millimeters, as the main stone.

    Will every black obsidian piece look the same?

    No. Variation can come from the material, cut, finish and lighting. Use the individual product photographs and measurements to judge the piece you will receive.

    How should I care for it?

    Keep finished jewelry away from hard impacts, harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners. Follow the product-specific care instructions, including those for metal finishes and other components.

    Representative material visualization · Appearance may vary

    Sterling silver is a silver alloy used in jewelry. Its bright, cool-toned surface can develop a natural patina with wear and exposure. The visible finish may also be plated, so always check the metal option for the individual piece.

    In this piece: 925 sterling silver with an 18kt gold vermeil finish, for the ring setting and band.

    Is sterling silver the same as a silver-colored finish?

    No. A silver-colored appearance alone does not establish metal content. Use the product's confirmed material specification; never identify sterling silver from its color or a reference photograph.

    Can sterling silver have a gold-colored finish?

    Yes. A gold layer can be applied over a sterling-silver base. In a vermeil option, the base metal and surface finish should both be stated; it must not be described as solid gold.

    How should I care for the finish?

    Store jewelry dry and separately, avoid cosmetics and household chemicals, and use a soft cloth. Follow the product's own care instructions before using silver cleaner, especially when stones, thread or gold plating are present.

    Shelter pear-shaped black obsidian ring

    One dark, steady stone

    A pear-shaped black obsidian set as a single bold stone

    A pear-shaped black obsidian of about 8 by 10 millimeters and 2.15 carats, in gold vermeil.

    Shelter holds a single pear-shaped black obsidian of about 8 by 10 millimeters at the front of the ring. The obsidian is a volcanic glass with a clean, glossy face, and the pointed tip of the pear draws the eye along the finger.

    The stone weighs about 2.15 carats, a size that makes a clear statement without overpowering the hand. Because the ring has only one stone, the dark face stays in focus from every angle, and the gold vermeil frame keeps the look warm.

    Shelter suits dark tailoring, black knitwear and evening dresses. It gives a focused, confident accent that can stand alone on a plain outfit or sit with other rings.

    Bold and substantial

    A solid ring with a warm gold finish

    About 3.90 grams of metal in a substantial band that holds the stone firmly.

    The ring weighs about 3.90 grams, so it feels solid and substantial on the finger. The setting holds the pear-shaped stone firmly, and the band is shaped to sit comfortably through a full day of wear.

    The 18kt yellow gold vermeil finish gives the ring a warm glow that complements the dark obsidian. It pairs well with gold accessories and earthy neutrals, and it looks rich against black clothing.

    Choosing your size

    This ring is made in size 6 only. Measure a ring you already wear that fits well, or wrap a strip of paper around the base of the finger, mark the overlap and compare the length with a size chart.

    Because the stone is large for a single-stone ring, check that it sits flat and upright when your hand is relaxed. If the size is not right for your finger, choose a different ring rather than forcing this one.

    Caring for the obsidian and finish

    Black obsidian can chip under hard knocks, and lotion, perfume, heat and chlorine can dull both the stone and the vermeil. Remove the ring before cleaning, gardening, swimming, exercise and sleep.

    After wear, wipe the ring with a soft dry cloth and store it in a separate pouch. Keeping it apart from harder jewelry protects the obsidian and the finish, so the stone keeps its smooth, dark gloss.

    Frequently asked questions

    Is the black obsidian natural?

    Yes. Black obsidian is a natural volcanic glass, and its gloss varies a little from one stone to another.

    What ring size is this?

    This ring is made in size 6 only. Measure your finger before you order, and check the size chart on the product page.

    Can I wear this ring every day?

    Yes, for everyday wear. The band is sturdy and the stone is set securely, but keep it away from hard knocks and remove it for heavy work.

    Is this ring in stock now?

    The ring is sold as a standard item. Check the product page for the delivery estimate shown there before you order.

    Is the finish solid gold?

    No. The finish is 18kt yellow gold vermeil over sterling silver, a thin gold layer rather than solid gold.

    Can I wear it in the shower or pool?

    Please remove it before swimming, showering, cleaning or exercise. Water, lotion and chlorine can dull the obsidian and the vermeil finish.
