This brand new Carrera y Carrera ring features 11 diamonds in a lyrical 18k gold setting. The ring has a flowy motif akin to scrolling foliate, with wheat-like bars that cross over each other and undulate in an aesthetically pleasing form. The diamonds are placed along a spiral center opening in the ring. The ring has a great wide width that is beautifully balanced by the openwork in its motif—giving the ring wonderful presence on the hand while remaining feminine and whimsical. The ring is part of Carrera y Carrera’s Origen design and is a perfect example of the unique and lyrical designs Carrera y Carrera are known for.
