🔨 STRUCTURE DESIGN
The Black Star Diopside Argentium Silver Ring Size 8.25 blends depth, light, and precision. The half-dome band curves upward along the gemstone’s sides, giving an architectural shape that feels strong yet calm.
DESIGN & FEEL – BLACK STAR DIOPSIDE HALF-DOME RING
Each ring is hand-forged in Argentium 940 silver. I shape a wide half-dome band that adds both comfort and presence. The band rises gently beside the gemstone, creating clean vertical lines that frame the stone. This gives the ring a balanced, modern look that remains easy to wear.
ABOUT THE BLACK STAR DIOPSIDE
This natural 16-carat oval cabochon shows the rare star effect known as asterism — a soft cross of light that moves across its surface. The black tone contrasts beautifully with polished silver. The bezel setting keeps the gem secure and lets the light reveal subtle reflections as the ring moves.

MAKING PROCESS
I form the band from heavy Argentium sheet and curve it into a half-dome. After shaping and refining, I fuse the edges and set the gemstone. The metal rises slightly around the stone for definition. Once polished, silver and black reflect each other with quiet strength.
