Tiled Garden Red Moss Agate Ring

A large oval of Yemeni agate with a wine-red and rust ground, clear glassy windows and a milky band at its top. Across it grow olive-grey branches and ringed spots, like a garden seen from above. Stones with this tree-like growth are sold in Yemen as Shajari.

The sterling silver collar is wrapped in twisted rope and finished with a beaded edge. Broad shoulders carry an interlocking tile pattern, polished silver against darkened grooves, running down toward the band.

A garden in red stone, framed by tiled silver.
