Geologic Stones Collection
To create this solid 925/1000 silver ring (60.14 grams) with Malachite.
Before becoming a piece of jewelry, I entirely sculpted it in wax using only a saw and a fissure milling cutter with a different cutting angle each time, I created different layers to cast it in silver.
I then applied a patina to give my work even more dimension.
For perfect comfort, select your finger size when ordering, and I will adjust the ring in my workshop before sending it to you.
Geologic Stones Collection - Solid Silver Rings and Malachite

Stone: Malachite (11.4 carats)
Weight: 60.14 grams
Geology, a science focused on the study of the Earth, encompasses various disciplines. Anthony Barrouyer's collection of rings associated with this theme also presents a jewelry style with a common spirit but different characteristics. The rings, pendants, and bracelets are made of solid silver with a legal fineness of 925/1000, sometimes combined with 750/1000 gold, with or without precious or semi-precious stones. In some creations, the aesthetics achieved through the manipulation of angles, hollows, and openings in the metal evoke the features of rocky landscapes, cliffs, crevices, and escarpments shaped by the erosion of time.
Some rings display streaks in the metal reminiscent of the layering seen in geological sedimentary rocks. Other pieces made of 925/1000 silver and 750/1000 gold may resemble volcanic formations, specifically volcanic rocks post-eruption, such as slag, where metals appear to have fused or melted, or even shattered due to extreme heat.
Pendants from the Krazy Stones collection may evoke plate tectonics, with the layering of different 925/1000 silver pieces creating a geometric yet asymmetrical style.
Finally, in other unique pieces, there are references to speleology, particularly stalactites and stalagmites forming and evolving in caves. Their shapes are irregular, elongated, and at times they appear to come together to form columns.
As you have understood, the Geologic Collection offers a visual journey, a raw and distinctive style where the aesthetics of the jewelry emphasize the physical history of our complex and secretive planet.
