Elemental design meets the tranquil essence of sky blue topaz in this timeless piece. A brilliant blue topaz is enveloped by a sinuous gold setting, reminiscent of molten metal shaped by the earth's primal forces. The serene, sky-blue hue of the stone has long been cherished as a symbol of clarity, calm, and wisdom.
The organic, fluid form of the gold setting evokes the natural rhythms of the earth, creating a piece that feels both eternal and contemporary. Every curve and detail of the pendant reflects an understated elegance that transcends time.
Topaz has a rich and varied history, with roots stretching back to ancient civilizations. The gemstone’s name likely derives from the ancient Greek island of Topazios (now called Zabargad) in the Red Sea, though this island was historically known for peridot, not topaz. Over time, the name "topaz" became associated with the mineral we recognize today, which comes in a wide range of colors, including blue, yellow, pink, and even colorless.
Topaz was prized by the ancient Greeks and Romans, who believed the stone had protective qualities, especially during battles. It was thought to strengthen the mind and body, prevent poisoning, and even make its wearer invisible in times of danger.
In the Middle Ages, Europeans believed topaz could break magic spells and cure illnesses. Saint Hildegard of Bingen, a renowned 12th-century mystic and healer, mentioned topaz in her works, prescribing it for a variety of physical ailments, especially to improve vision.
A quiet statement of refined craftsmanship, the Molten Garnet Pendant carries with it the weight of history and the beauty of nature, designed for those who appreciate meaning and artistry in equal measure.
Why Solid Gold
Solid gold is for those who buy once and buy well. It will not tarnish, fade, or degrade; worn daily for decades, it only grows more beautiful. It is the right choice if you want a piece that lasts a lifetime or becomes an heirloom.
Gold has appreciated steadily for centuries and retains intrinsic value: it can always be melted down and reborn as something new. It is adornment that is also an investment.
Our solid gold pieces are cast using the ancient lost wax method and are never hollow. Every gram is 100% certified recycled, and every piece is made by hand in New York City.

Why don't you make rings in Gold Vermeil?
While we love the affordability of vermeil, it's not an ideal metal for rings because our hands are exposed to so much wear and tear.
Vermeil necklaces can last 2 - 3 years with proper care, but we've never seen a vermeil ring last more than 6 months.
We believe it would be wrong to sell these rings to you in anything but solid gold.
Does your jewelry come in a box or a pouch?
Necklaces come in a beautiful maroon box, while rings come in an antique-style velvet box.
