Midnight's Blue Essence Ring

Skulls and gemstones have been keeping each other company since the memento mori craze of the 17th century. The Victorians understood that death and beauty aren't opposites, they're just two things that look good together.

The Midnight's Blue Essence ring puts a deep blue crystal, the colour of sky at 2am when you're the last one awake, into a gothic skull mount that earns it. The imitation crystal catches light in a way that feels genuinely cold, which is a compliment. This sits in the pocket of gothic and dark aesthetic jewellery where things are allowed to be a little dramatic without apologising for it.

Stainless steel with blue imitation crystal. Available in size 7 (O UK, 17.35mm internal diameter).
