Tibetan Ring
Tibetan rings are among the most treasured pieces of jewelry collectors today.
Skilled artisans use the same painstaking techniques that have been implemented for
generations to create the most gorgeous silverworks and gem cuts. Many
still practice their craft high in the mountains of Nepal in remote villages
where time stands still.
Asia is home to some of the worlds finest gemstones, so grand master
artisans have a wide variety of stunning stones to work with. Tibetan
rings are often set with green turquoise, red coral, butterscotch
yellow amber, carnelian, labradorites, moonstones and deep blue lapis lazuli.
Stunning emeralds,
rubies, sapphires, amethysts, citrines, peridots and garnets are common
as well. Tibetan master gem cutters create amazingly fine gem cuts to
give these stones incredible dazzle.
Tibetan rings often includes gemstone inlays. Artisans often use gems
from shell, like stunning abalone or mother of pearl, as well as
turquoise,
lapis lazuli and coral in intricate inlay designs. You'll find Tibetan
rings with traditional flower designs and abstract patterns.
Most Tibetan rings are handcrafted from sterling silver, but
you'll find pieces in pure silver, bronze and gold. Look for fine granulation, filigree, hand-cuts and carvings.
Buddhist symbols, like the elephant-headed wisdom god Ganesh, the
sacred conch shell sankha, lotus blossoms and buddhas are common
themes. Many
rings also feature fearsome dragons and snakes.
