A stunning piece, this 9ct Gold & Sterling Silver Ring combines a beautiful Kahurangi Pounamu cabochon in a 9ct Gold bevel setting with a Sterling Silver band. The Greenstone is gem-grade Kahurangi with its characteristic translucency and gorgeous colour, and together with the two precious metals it is a real statement piece that is sure to be treasured.
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.
