London Blue Topaz and Peridot Adjustable Ring by Andrea Pellicani

Jewelry: London topaz and peridot ring in reclaimed sterling silver
Size 7.25 and is expandable

The Green Jeweler grew from the joy of making art and jewelry and Andrea's passion for protecting the earth's resources. She is so grateful for the support from so many customers, it helped her give time and donate to causes I believe in. Sustainability isn't a trend for Andrea Pellicani; she has been using reclaimed metals for 30 years. Andrea starts with high quality gemstones that are fair mined in the US and then handcrafting settings from recycled sterling silver, fine silver and gold. Inspiration comes from the deep enjoyment she gets from being outdoors.
