A stunningly saturated geometric shield-cut Colombian emerald is clasped a level above perfectly matched tapering trapezoidal diamonds, ending in a petite tapered bullet cut. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoving the ring, emerald green reflections shoot through from the high-polished internal band, and looking through the side you see the profiles of the gems. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the thickness of the tantalum waxes and wanes, the gold internal band moves with it to make a piece that feels completely balanced while never being uniform. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMonths of research and development lead me to this 90-hour project, and though it’s completely unique to my usual style it’s the piece I’m most proud of throughout my entire career. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Katie Law Jewellery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43864771166294,"sku":null,"price":45000.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0286\/0656\/2390\/files\/00032706-73BB-4A1A-ACE0-3683C953BFC4.jpg?v=1769658402","url":"https:\/\/katielaw.com.au\/products\/caiman-award-winning-tantalum-ring","provider":"Katie Law Jewellery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
