Sunlit Riverbed - Silver & sapphire ring

Inspired by the way light flickers across a riverbed —
golden stones half-hidden beneath moving water,
glimpsed… then gone.

This ring was formed in molten silver, allowed to settle and cool in its own rhythm. The surface holds the marks of movement — textured, irregular, like rock shaped slowly by tide.

Small yellow sapphires emerge from within the metal rather than sitting on top of it. They feel discovered, not placed. As if revealed by shifting water and light.

There is no symmetry here.
No repetition.
Only a moment — caught and held in silver.

The Tidal pieces are about quiet radiance.
Jewellery that doesn’t shout, but glows.

For women who are steady, self-possessed, and drawn to depth over display.

Fit & Feel

Designed to sit comfortably while still feeling sculptural. The band is lightly textured to echo the central form, giving the entire piece cohesion and depth.

Top area is 10.7 mm H x 8.5mm L, band is approximately 2 mm W x 2mm H, inner diameter is 18.5mm making this a size NZ Q 1/2

I have even left the circle left by the sprue... who says it has to be erased.  

One Only

Like all Leah Firth pieces, this ring will never be repeated exactly. If your size isn’t available, a similar version can be commissioned — but it will always evolve slightly. That’s part of the beauty.

Wear art — not a trend.
