Before you choose
How to choose a ring
Start with the hand, not the stone
Long fingers carry tall settings; working hands want a bezel or a low prong. If you wear gloves or type all day, height is the first decision, not the last.
Pick the stone for the life it will live
A ring worn daily needs 8 or harder on the Mohs scale: sapphire, spinel, diamond. Softer stones like opal and emerald are occasion stones, or need protective settings.
Size in the afternoon
Fingers run a half size larger by evening and in summer. We size to your afternoon measurement and resize free within two sizes.
Buy the cut, not the carat
A well-cut smaller stone reads larger and livelier than a lazy big one. This is where our money goes, and where yours should.
The short answer
Golden South Sea pearl rings at Made With Color: one one of a kind work at $920, each built around a stone chosen loose, in daylight, in New York. The deep gold pearls of the Philippine sea, largest of all. Every stone ships with a passport naming origin, carat, cut, and any treatment in plain words.
About golden south sea pearl
The deep gold pearls of the Philippine sea, largest of all. We choose every stone loose, in daylight, and every work above carries a passport that says exactly what it is.
CHOOSING THE STONE
Start with hardness
Golden South Sea pearl is 3 / 10 on the Mohs scale. For daily rings, choose a bezel or low prongs; for earrings and pendants, wear it freely.
Fit before beauty
Measure a ring you already own at the end of the day, when fingers run largest.
Then the look
Decide setting height first. Hands that type, garden, or lift want the stone low.
Is golden south sea pearl good for rings?
Golden South Sea pearl is 3 / 10 on the Mohs scale. A ring takes more knocks than any other jewel. Below 8 on the Mohs scale, choose a bezel or a low setting.
Which birthstone is golden south sea pearl?
Golden South Sea pearl is the Jun birthstone and the traditional stone of the 30th anniversary. We set it for both, and for no occasion at all.
Are these stones treated?
Untreated unless the passport says otherwise. When a stone of ours is heated or grown in a lab, the passport says so in that word, in the same type size as everything else, and the price reflects it.
How much do golden south sea pearl rings cost?
Today, one work at $920. Each is one of a kind, so the page moves as stones sell and new ones are set.
How long until it arrives?
Ready-now works leave the studio within two business days, insured and signed for. Made to order pieces state their bench time on the page, most within three to four weeks.
What if it does not suit?
Thirty days from delivery, in original condition, in the slate box. Resizing is free for life on rings, and any stone we set can be reset into a new mount as taste changes.
