Aquamarine is the birthstone for the month of March! This piece is handcrafted in New Hampshire, made entirely from ecological 14k Palladium White Gold. I use this metal alloy because it combines the best of 2 worlds- The rich gray of platinum and palladium with the durability and brightness of 14k White Gold. The combined metal shones beautifully, or retains the brushed finish perfectly. I had carved this setting from a chunk of wax, made a mold and cast the piece before hand cleaning and setting each 8mm x 8mm natural blue aquamarine cushion shaped gemstone. Each stone varies in weight because of the differences in the depth of the stone. I select my gems for uniformity in color and clarity, as well as superior cut. This piece holds a diagonal bezel set 8mm cushion cut Aquamarine. The finish of the setting is polished in the first image, but I'm happy to make this brushed or matte finish if that's your preference. The band is 1.6mm wide and rounded for smooth, comfortable wear. The snag-free bezel is great if you work with your hands since it doesn't catch, or scratch. The bezel height from the side is 7mm to accommodate the height of the gemstone it holds and keep the culet (sharp bit) from irritating your skin beneath the ring.

What makes my jewelry special

Madelynn Cassin Designs has been selling on ETSY since 2008 under the shop name Onegarnetgirl. This small, independently owned business grew from a love of gemstones and a passion for making. Madelynn's designs are inspired by large, naturally occurring colored gemstones and the way they sparkle in the sun. These mini works of art start from a block of wax that she then carefully carves into the bold yet delicate and feminine creations that bare her name. This labor of love has grown from a small workspace on a three-season porch to a bustling workshop in an old mill building, where Madelynn continues to handmake objects that help people feel beautiful, loved and express their personalities.

Sustainability is super important, as the effects of mining for precious materials can devastate communities unnecessarily. Because of this, we use only alloys that are 100% recycled, ethically sourced gemstones, and utilize compostable, plant based packaging.

Why is a Madelynn Cassin Piece so Special?

Each setting is hand carved in wax, cast in metal, and hand polished, prepped, soldered and set in our workshop in Keene, NH. From concept to completion all settings are handcrafted and never utilize purchased mass-produced components. If you treasure jewelry that is made by hand, in a careful, thoughtful manner, you have come to the right place.
