Mizuki - 14-Karat Gold, Akoya Pearl And Diamond Ring - 5

Shaped in an open silhouette, this ring from Mizuki's 'Sea of Beauty' collection is crafted from 14-karat gold (585), with an Akoya pearl at one end and a diamond at the other. The pearl is half-drilled and fixed on a post beneath a polished gold cap, while the brilliant-cut diamond is held in a prong setting at the opposite tip, a modern take on the toi et moi ring. Their contrasting proportions create a quiet dialogue between the soft luster of nacre and the sparkle of a gemstone.
