This petite Lunar Universe ring in sterling silver features a small cup-shaped design in a textured silver finish. The ring is hand-finished in our Orkney workshop in Midnight enamel and features individually placed 24ct yellow gold flakes. The cup-like design measures approximately 10mm wide and sits on a 2mm band.
Sheila’s Lunar designs are textured like the surface of rock and her Lunar Universe enamelled designs are enhanced with beautiful flakes of 24ct yellow gold. Due to the hand-crafted nature of these designs, and the delicate placement of individual gold flakes by our skilled enamellers, every piece from Sheila's Lunar Universe collection is unique.
Thousands of years ago at the Ness of Brodgar in Orkney, people carved hollows or cup-marks of various sizes in rough rock, perhaps to signify an event or to follow the passage of time as the moon waxed and waned. Sheila's inspiration for this collection followed after a visit to the Orkney Museum in Kirkwall, where some of these ancient carvings can be seen.
