Size 7

This is a sculptural silver ring with a swooping, almost ribbon-like band and a little dark patina sitting in the folds. The bezels around the stones are warm bronze or gold-toned, so you get that two-metal look without it being shiny or precious. There are three pear-cut blue topaz stones, faceted and glassy, like tiny drops of cold water. One sits up top and the other two lean out to the sides, so the whole thing reads like a loose triangle. 

The blue topaz in this one is pale and clear, with sharp facets that throw little flashes when you move your hand. People usually link blue topaz with clarity, calmer thoughts, and saying what you mean without the extra noise. It also gets tied to communication, in a practical way, not a woo-woo way. The three-drop layout feels like three small reminders, like: breathe, think, speak.

BORA began with three brothers in Brooklyn, New York, making pieces that look hand-built instead of factory-clean. The designs pull from Mediterranean tradition, using oxidized 925 sterling silver and bronze or gold accents so the metal has depth and warmth.
