Black obsidian is a volcanic glass with a clean, glossy face, and the dark stones read as a steady line of color across the finger. Beside them a round labradorite holds a blue, gray and teal flash that moves as the hand turns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA round lab diamond sits in the band with the other stones. The lab diamond is grown in a lab with the same chemistry as a mined diamond, and it adds a small, bright point to the dark base. The shapes are small and close together, so the ring reads as one tidy design rather than a set of separate stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe total stone weight is about 0.49 carats, so the ring stays light and easy to wear. Bastion suits dark knits, tailored jackets and everyday clothes in black and gray, and it adds a focused accent that does not need to be loud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"catalog-editorial catalog-editorial--detail\"\u003e\u003cfigure\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/3778\/6177\/files\/mel-bastion-black-obsidian-lab-diamond-ring-03-f64778b85f.jpg?v=1791573807\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"A close view shows yellow gold prongs around a dark marquise stone, clear round stones and blue gray accents.\"\u003e\u003cfigcaption\u003eBastion ring worn on the hand\u003c\/figcaption\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"catalog-kicker\"\u003eFirm and well made\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA band that holds its line on the finger\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"catalog-lead\"\u003eAbout 1.50 grams of metal in a ring with a firm, even setting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ring weighs about 1.50 grams, so it feels solid without being heavy. The setting is kept low and even, so the stones sit flat against the finger and do not catch on sleeves or gloves in a busy day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSterling silver gives the band a sharp, cool edge that suits silver jewelry and dark clothes.

Its dark, smooth face has long been linked with resilience and quiet determination, so Bastion suits anyone who values steadiness. The meaning is yours to choose, and the ring makes no promise of a particular result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome people give a black obsidian ring to a friend who has faced a hard season and kept going. Others wear one as a private reminder to stay steady when the plan needs more time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your size\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizes run from 5 to 10. Measure a ring you already wear that fits well, or wrap a strip of paper around the base of the finger, mark where it overlaps and compare the length with a size chart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the stones are set low across the front, check that the ring sits flat and stays in place when your hand is relaxed. If you are between sizes, choose the one that moves over the knuckle with a little resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for the stones and finish\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack obsidian can chip under hard knocks, labradorite can scratch, and lotion, perfume, heat and chlorine can dull the stones and the vermeil. Remove the ring before cleaning, gardening, swimming, exercise and sleep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter wear, wipe the ring with a soft dry cloth and store it in a separate pouch. Keeping it apart from harder jewelry protects the stones, the lab diamond and the finish, so the dark base keeps its smooth gloss.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Modern Energy Lab","offers":[{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 5","offer_id":50639111553089,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464514419","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 6","offer_id":50639111585857,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464547187","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 7","offer_id":50639111618625,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464579955","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 8","offer_id":50639111651393,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464612723","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 9","offer_id":50639111684161,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464645491","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 10","offer_id":50639111716929,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464678259","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 5","offer_id":50639111749697,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464711027","price":109.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 6","offer_id":50639111782465,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464743795","price":109.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 7","offer_id":50639111815233,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464776563","price":109.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 8","offer_id":50639111848001,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464809331","price":109.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 9","offer_id":50639111880769,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464842099","price":109.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 10","offer_id":50639111913537,"sku":"MEL-T20-62658464874867","price":109.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/3778\/6177\/files\/mel-bastion-black-obsidian-lab-diamond-ring-01-cc96cfdc20.jpg?v=1791573807","url":"https:\/\/modernenergylab.com\/products\/bastion-black-obsidian-lab-diamond-ring","provider":"Modern Energy Lab","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
