The stone was mined by an independent family mining operation in Afghanistan and cut by a small family business in Sri Lanka. My stone supplier has worked directly with these same families for many years and is committed to helping to improve their lives. The miners and cutters are paid a professional price for their work; no cheap mass production done by children in India or underpaid factory workers in China.
This ring is a size 6.5 and is, of course, hand made by me.
Tourmaline is an October birthstone.
Due to the value of this piece, shipping costs have been adjusted to include insurance within the United States. I do offer international shipping; if you live outside the US, please contact me for a quote specific to your location. Due to the lack of availability of insurance through the US postal service for international packages, I use FedEx when shipping overseas; this is a more expensive but far safer option. International buyers, please be aware that you are solely responsible for any duties/taxes that your country may charge on imported goods.
As is all my jewelry, this piece is vegan, meaning no animal products (pearls, silk, leather, etc.) were used in its construction.
I accept PayPal, money orders, checks, and credit cards (please call me at 707-633-6340 if you would like to initiate a credit card payment outside of Paypal).
