11-12mm Black Cultured Tahitian Pearl Ring With .20 ct. t.w. White Topaz in Sterling Silver

STERLING SILVER: Also known as "Standard Silver," sterling silver is silver alloyed with other metals to increase the hardness and durability. Generally, sterling is 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals. Some sterling silver jewelry is plated with 14kt-18kt gold and referred to as "vermeil," or "gold over sterling."

TEXTURED: A unique and varying finish with a tactile surface applied through various techniques, both by hand and with machinery.

TOPAZ: Available in a stunning selection of shades, the topaz's sky blue hue is one of the most popular colors for jewelry designs. Once thought to offer protection, today topaz is favored for its durability and affordability. Yellow topaz is the birthstone for November while blue topaz is for December.

TAHITIAN PEARL: Saltwater pearls found off the islands of French Polynesia, treasured for their rarity, large size, and mysterious color. Tahitian pearls are grown in black-lipped oysters and range from metallic silver to graphite-colored with overtones of blue, purple, and green.

NEAR-ROUND: A pearl that visually appears almost round.
