Vintage Tiger Eye Ring

Scalloped petals of darkened silver open out around the oval of tiger eye on this ring, like a lace collar around a cameo. The stone is a warm amber brown with a soft light across its dome, and it sits in a smooth bezel at the center. Each petal is outlined in bright silver, and small round beads fill the spaces between them.

A lace-like frame with an old-world look

The frame spreads wide across the top of the finger and down onto the shoulders, so the ring reads as a flower rather than a simple solitaire. The oxidized hollows inside each petal contrast with the polished rims, which gives the piece the look of an heirloom from a grandmother's jewelry box. In crystal lore, tiger eye is associated with calm and inner balance, and our guide on which finger to wear a tiger eye ring explains the customs behind each finger.
