I really wanted to add a pearl ring to my collection. The problem was I wanted the pearl to appear to be floating. This design is what came to me! The walls of metal on either side of the pearl are to protect it and add a unique design element. The Pearl is a 9 mm AAA Quality Tahitian Pearl. Ring Size = 6.5 Metal = Sterling Silver (note this piece can be sized up to a 10 or down to a 4)
