“If you were a mermaid, you said, If you were a mermaid, I was the sea.”

• This ring is currently a size 6.5, but we can resize it for you prior to shipping. We can resize this ring in-house complimentary to you down to size 5 and up to size 8 (quarter/half/whole sizes; please see the resizing info below)...possibly a bit further (please use our Contact page to inquire).
• RESIZING INFO (for the finished ready-to-ship ring in the photos): complimentary in-house resizing up or down takes approx. 16 business days to complete as it is not a fast process and takes several hours (sometimes a full day) of careful work. Please select your ring size from the drop-down menu.
  
• Focal gemstone: 0.70 ct Starbrite cut pastel green sapphire (6 mm); this gem was cut by John Dyer (we will forward a copy of the sapphire's certificate of authenticity upon request after purchase); origin is Sri Lanka, unheated.
• Accent gemstones: 5–1mm VS natural diamonds, 7–1.5mm teal and blue sapphires. One of the accents had a surface reaching inclusion that is not visible except under extreme magnification.
  
• All Knot & Splice gemstones are carefully sourced
• Palladium-alloy 14k gold weight: ~ over 4 grams\
• 14k palladium white gold (nickel-free; palladium is in the platinum family which is a premium hypoallergenic alloy that is much more durable than common nickel that is used in standard white gold jewelry; it is also more valuable)
• Currently a polished finish (can be finished with a matte/brushed finish...please note, as you wear the ring, it will burnish and become more polished with time); polishing and brushed finishes will wear as they are loved and worn.
• hallmarked "14k" and maker's marks
• all the gemstones we use are ethically sourced from reputable gem dealers

Please note: While every effort is made to photograph the items to be an accurate representation, photography and computer monitors have limitations and differences. These images were taken with a Canon DSLR and macro lens (this shows much more detail than the eye can see). Colors and brightness may vary on different devices. I believe these pieces look so much prettier in person when held in the hand and admired by the eye (I've also been told this many times by Knot & Splice customers). I hope you're delighted when you receive your special piece.
