The Empire | Pink Tourmaline

The Empire is a little bit classic, a little bit punk. The substantial gold bezel’s horizontal orientation offers an element of surprise as it cradles a luscious, hot pink tourmaline. Through custom lapidary work, we softened the facets of this incredible stone so that it mimics a piece of hard candy that has been gently sucked. The result is almost edible.

Pairs beautifully with the Essential Band or the Dominus Band (each sold separately).

Gemstone notes: Ethically sourced from a family-owned mine in Brazil. Each gemstone is unique and color will vary slightly.

Gold Finish

All pieces leave our studio with a high polish. We do not pre-age the gold, we leave that process to you. The photos on our website and Instagram show varying degrees of patina and wear, and you can expect your piece to acquire that same glow after a bit of wear. The warmth and softness will deepen over time to become truly yours.
