A small raw stone on a slim band is a quiet way to carry that idea, so Trace suits anyone who values an understated piece they can wear every day. The meaning is yours to choose, and the ring makes no promise of a particular result.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome people wear a small obsidian ring as a daily reminder to stay steady.

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 stone is raw, check that the ring sits flat and does not rock when your hand is relaxed. If you are between sizes, choose the one that moves over the knuckle with slight resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"catalog-text\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCaring for the raw stone and finish\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack obsidian can chip under hard knocks, and lotion, perfume, sweat and chlorine can dull its gloss 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 edges and the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Modern Energy Lab","offers":[{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 5","offer_id":50639218835521,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511326792","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 6","offer_id":50639218868289,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511359560","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 7","offer_id":50639218901057,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511392328","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 8","offer_id":50639218933825,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511425096","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 9","offer_id":50639218966593,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511457864","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"925 Sterling Silver \/ 10","offer_id":50639218999361,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511490632","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 5","offer_id":50639219032129,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511720008","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 6","offer_id":50639219064897,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511752776","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 7","offer_id":50639219097665,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511785544","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 8","offer_id":50639219130433,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511818312","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Yellow Gold Vermeil \/ 10","offer_id":50639219163201,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511883848","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Rose Gold Vermeil \/ 5","offer_id":50639219195969,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511523400","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Rose Gold Vermeil \/ 6","offer_id":50639219228737,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511556168","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Rose Gold Vermeil \/ 7","offer_id":50639219261505,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511588936","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Rose Gold Vermeil \/ 8","offer_id":50639219294273,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511621704","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18kt Rose Gold Vermeil \/ 10","offer_id":50639219327041,"sku":"MEL-T20-39847511687240","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/3778\/6177\/files\/mel-trace-black-obsidian-ring-01-4629bb4110.jpg?v=1791575125","url":"https:\/\/modernenergylab.com\/products\/trace-black-obsidian-ring","provider":"Modern Energy Lab","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
