Each Bubble Quarry Ring is a tiny landscape of texture, color, and shine. A raw gemstone or mineral specimen forms the heart of the piece, its natural surfaces left beautifully untouched to show off every ridge and shimmer. Sterling silver “bubbles” dance across the top—hand-formed loops that frame the stone like an abstract map of its terrain. A faceted gemstone adds a spark of light, creating a striking contrast against the raw mineral beneath.
Every ring in this series is completely one of a kind, shaped by the stone itself and finished with sculptural sterling silver details. Bold, modern, and unmistakably handmade, these pieces celebrate the meeting of wild earth and refined craft.
Because I hand-cut stones right in my studio, I am able to shape unusual rough mineral specimens specifically to build complex, one-of-a-kind miniature landscapes. Sourcing raw materials worldwide and doing my own lapidary work allows me to tailor the forms of both this striking pyrite and the vibrant lapis lazuli, ensuring they lock seamlessly into the hand-constructed sterling silver setting.
