The navette ring was one of the many styles that were in vogue for a time during the expansive Victorian era. Literally meaning ‘little ship’, the design is, well, shaped like a tiny little ship. The navette style tends to elongate the finger and has a definite feminine side. Often popularized during the Victorian Era, however, you can find brand new navette rings today.
Foil is a gemstone surface enhancement technique where a thin sheet of metal or other material (sometimes colored) is placed behind the gemstone in order to reflect more light, and/or color, back into the stone and then towards the viewer.
This soft and sweet example of a ring spreads sensually across the finger while it reminisces a giardinetti ring with its killer construction. Featuring a foiled pink topaz, this special piece represents wealth and prosperity and fits just right in any look or collection.
