Héphaïstos Stones...
This solid silver ring (18.7 grams) is set with a black diamond (1.30 carats) a gem with unusual characteristics.
Today, the main theory of researchers is that this diamond would come from a collision between our planet and an asteroid dating back hundreds of millions of years (2.6 to 3.8 billion years BC).
The debris caused by the collision would have spread in the atmosphere and would have landed in Africa as well as in Brazil.
This black gem is therefore distinguished from other diamonds whose origin is volcanic and makes us dream because of its genesis and its components.
The final rendering is unique, the lines are light but marked by the work of the metal.
Héphaïstos Stones...
Set with a diamond, this ring in solid silver 925/1000 (11.7 grams) and Gold 750/1000 (2.9 grams).
This piece in silver ages or the gold is shiny giving it a unique raw effect reinforced by its stone and its shape.
The gold is melted on the silver like lava that would cover the walls of a volcano.
To achieve this effect, the gold is heated to more than 1000 ° to fuse with the silver, I particularly like this technique which gives a surprising result each time.
For the finish, the silver is patinated, aged voluntarily, the gold contrasts with its shine, the unique effect is reinforced by the diamond and the raw aesthetics of the ring.

At the center of this ring is a dazzling citrine weighing 0.67 carats.
The citrine, with its warm golden hue, adds a touch of light and vitality to this piece.
It is framed by the raw sterling silver, which creates a striking contrast between the softness of the stone and the roughness of the silver, accentuating its unique character.
