The Arion ring is a one of a kind sapphire cluster ring (with sculpted talon prongs) inspired by sunsets and another version of my "Helene" ring. A slightly wider band with beautiful textures that can only be done by hand, and a low profile prong-set cluster of stunning Umba sapphires are what really give this ring so much character.

This ring was first hand-carved in wax and then cast as a one of a kind piece directly into 14K gold. The setting sits directly on the finger and is very low profile, so a matching curved band will be needed to stack additional rings with it. 

Want a different 14K gold color or different sapphires?: This ring is ready to ship and can be resized. However, we also offer this design as made to order in the Create your own ring section of the shop with your choice of 14k gold and you can choose the sapphires for your ring. Please visit that listing to customize your own Arion ring.

• size 6 (complimentary resizing prior to shipping is available for this ring; this ring can be resized from US ring sizes 4–8)(quarter/half/whole sizes). 
• RESIZING INFO (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY): complimentary in-house resizing takes 14 business days to complete as it is not a fast process and takes several hours of careful work. Please select the desired ring size from the drop-down menu).
• 14K yellow gold (we use recycled milled precious metals)
• one of a kind heirloom ring perfect for ceremonial and every day wear
• Gemstones: 3.33ct of ethically sourced rosecut pastel Umba sapphires from the Umba Valley in Tanzania (this gemstone is unheated/natural); Umba sapphires, unlike many other sapphires, are almost never treated, which makes them very unique and extremely rare. Umba sapphires are often pastel or brightly colored with unique inclusions that sets them apart from other origins. 
• Setting dimensions: approx. 13.8mm x 16mm
• Band dimensions (excluding the setting): approx. 3.12mm x 2.5mm, half-round style with polished interior
• Textures/finish: The handmade textures which really add so much to this special piece give this ring a less shiny look, although it is currently at a high polish. We can give it a matte/brushed finish if you select this option in the drop-down menu.

Please note: While every effort is made to photograph the items to be an accurate representation, photography and computer monitors have limitations and differences. These images were taken with a Canon DSLR and macro lens (this shows much more detail than the eye can see). Colors and brightness may vary on different devices. I believe these pieces look so much prettier in person when held in the hand and admired by the eye (I've also been told this many times by Knot & Splice customers). I hope you're delighted when you receive your special piece in the mail.
