The specimen keeps its raw crystalline form: the facets, the texture, the metallic flash the mineral makes on its own. Our rays frame it the way light frames a rising sun, and we set each one individually, because no two specimens are the same shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rays are formed rather than cut. We shape them in \u003cem\u003emedia caña\u003c\/em\u003e — a half-round section drawn to a point, the same technique we use for our Sol earrings and pendant. It gives each ray a rounded body instead of a flat profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEvery ring is different.\u003c\/strong\u003e Not just in color or pattern — the stones vary in size and structure, so the ring you receive is dimensionally its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: .925 sterling silver, hand-polished\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: rays formed by hand in media caña, a half-round section drawn to a point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone: natural pyrite, uncut, in raw crystalline form — size and structure vary from piece to piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRays: 5 rays, longest 14 mm, shortest 7 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBand: 4 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: approx. 10 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in: our workshop in Taxco, Guerrero, Mexico\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReady to ship from our Houston, Texas warehouse.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSilver is a living material and will develop a patina over time. Polish it with a silver cloth to bring back the shine, or leave it darker — we like it both ways. Pyrite is iron-based: keep it dry, away from moisture and household cleaners, and it will hold its flash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy is the pyrite raw instead of polished?\u003c\/strong\u003e Because pyrite is more beautiful uncut. Polishing it would erase the crystalline structure that makes it what it is. What you get is a mineral specimen set in silver, not a gemstone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill my ring look exactly like the photograph?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, and that's the point. Every pyrite specimen has its own size, structure and brilliance. The photograph shows one ring; yours will be another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs pyrite the same as fool's gold?\u003c\/strong\u003e Same mineral. Iron sulfide, with a metallic golden flash that fooled a lot of prospectors. We use it because it's genuinely beautiful next to silver, not because it looks like gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs there a version with a polished stone?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. The Sol Ring is the same silhouette with a polished cabochon in lapis lazuli, malachite or black onyx.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carolina S Studio","offers":[{"title":"9.5","offer_id":67730020401248,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"9","offer_id":67730020434016,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"8.5","offer_id":67730020466784,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"8","offer_id":67730020499552,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7.5","offer_id":67730020532320,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"7","offer_id":67730020565088,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6.5","offer_id":67730020597856,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"6","offer_id":67730020630624,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5.5","offer_id":67730020663392,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5","offer_id":67730020696160,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"4.5","offer_id":67730020728928,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"4","offer_id":67730020761696,"sku":"SOL-R-PY-P2-RTS","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0667\/8947\/4400\/files\/sol-pyrite-ring-sterling-silver-front_729c0635-a6c7-4af9-b3bd-2e550735fd34.jpg?v=1791308072","url":"https:\/\/carolinasstudio.com\/products\/sol-pyrite-ring-in-sterling-silver-ready-to-ship","provider":"Carolina S Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
