Obsidian is a volcanic glass, and this piece is left in its natural state, so the edges and the glossy surface look as though they were formed by the earth rather than by a tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour round lab diamonds sit around the obsidian in two sizes, about 0.10 carats in total. Each lab diamond is grown in a lab with the same chemistry as a mined diamond, and the smaller and larger stones together add small, bright points to the dark base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe total stone weight is about 2.20 carats. Root looks strong with dark knitwear, tailored jackets and everyday clothes in black and gray, and it adds a steady, focused accent that stays quiet on the hand.\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-root-black-obsidian-lab-diamond-ring-03-50a1ac4535.jpg?v=1791573807\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"The side of a yellow gold vermeil ring shows the raised black stone and two curved bands.\"\u003e\u003cfigcaption\u003eRoot ring worn on the hand\u003c\/figcaption\u003e\u003c\/figure\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"catalog-kicker\"\u003eFirm and natural\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA solid ring with a natural, dark face\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"catalog-lead\"\u003eAbout 3.07 grams of metal in a sturdy setting that holds the raw stone securely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ring weighs about 3.07 grams, so it feels solid on the finger.

Its dark, smooth face has long been linked with self-control and a calm, practical way of facing the day, so Root suits anyone who values stability. 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 raw obsidian ring to a friend who has taken on a new responsibility. Others wear one as a private reminder to keep their feet on the ground when plans shift.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing your size\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizes run from 4 to 11. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the raw stone has uneven edges, check that the ring sits flat when your hand is relaxed and does not rock. 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 raw obsidian\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack obsidian can chip under hard knocks, and lotion, perfume, heat and chlorine can dull the surface 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 raw stone, the lab diamonds and the finish, so the dark surface 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 \/ 4","offer_id":50639113879617,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638595768691","price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 5","offer_id":50639113912385,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638595801459","price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 6","offer_id":50639113945153,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638595834227","price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 7","offer_id":50639113977921,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638595866995","price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 8","offer_id":50639114010689,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638595899763","price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 9","offer_id":50639114043457,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638595932531","price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 10","offer_id":50639114076225,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638595965299","price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 11","offer_id":50639114108993,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638595998067","price":169.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 4","offer_id":50639114141761,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638596030835","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 5","offer_id":50639114174529,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638596063603","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 6","offer_id":50639114207297,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638596096371","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 7","offer_id":50639114240065,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638596129139","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 8","offer_id":50639114272833,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638596161907","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 9","offer_id":50639114305601,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638596194675","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 10","offer_id":50639114338369,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638596227443","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 11","offer_id":50639114371137,"sku":"MEL-T20-62638596260211","price":149.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/3778\/6177\/files\/mel-root-black-obsidian-lab-diamond-ring-01-db6102231e.jpg?v=1791573807","url":"https:\/\/modernenergylab.com\/products\/root-black-obsidian-lab-diamond-ring","provider":"Modern Energy Lab","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
