A beautiful Kahurangi Pounamu and Sterling Silver Ring with a claw setting around the oval-cut Greenstone cabochon. The band on this piece arches wonderfully around the stone.
Kahurangi- Genuine West Coast Greenstone from the Marsden, West Coast area. Kahurangi is the rarest variety of pounamu. It is highly translucent and often comes in vivid shades of green. Small, feather-like markings in the stone can give a cloud effect – although to be classed as Kahurangi, this effect must not reduce the stone’s clarity. The word Kahurangi also indicates nobility and refers to precious jewels and held in high esteem by Māori.
Cabochon cut by Deane Moreton
Metalwork by Gilt Workshops
Dimensions of setting - approx 6.1mm x 4.1mm
