The 24 facets on the surface of the rose cut reflect light, creating a beautiful, sparkling shimmer. Lapis lazuli is also the birthstone for December. The 'VALOA' series utilizes the classic shape of the rose cut. We've meticulously crafted the design with gently curving shoulders that split into two, a clean and elegant contour for the ring band, and prongs that securely hold the stone, tapering to a fine point. The combination of the ring band and the classic gemstone creates a sophisticated aura, suited for the modern woman. The name 'VALOA' is a fusion of 'vingt-quatre' (twenty-four in French), inspired by the 24 facets that form a dome shape by combining triangular cuts characteristic of the rose cut, and 'nuovo' (new in Italian), representing novelty. This name also draws from the combination of letters in the alphabet that evoke the design's essence and its pleasing sound. The ring embodies a sophisticated and gentle femininity, enhanced by the unique beauty of the colored stone, offering a delicate sweetness balanced with a refined, subtle bitterness. You can enjoy its diverse expressions. We invite you to explore layering and coordinating this piece with other rings, earrings, and necklaces from the same series. This ring, with its beautifully refined band and striking rose-cut colored stone, elevates any ensemble. The K10 yellow gold setting adds a lustrous gleam that complements the gemstone, enhancing your overall style.

Lapis lazuli is the birthstone for December. As its Japanese name suggests, it is characterized by its beautiful deep blue color. While lapis lazuli has a relatively low Mohs hardness due to its composition, its lack of cleavage and good toughness make it a gemstone that can be used in jewelry for generations. Indeed, lapis lazuli has a very ancient history, having been treasured as a precious gemstone since the dawn of ancient civilizations across various regions. Lapis lazuli is formed from a beautiful aggregate of minerals, with golden pyrite flecks and white calcite inclusions creating sparkle and accents within its deep blue. In Japan, lapis lazuli has been known since ancient times as one of the seven treasures of Buddhism. The Shosoin Imperial Treasure House contains a belt adorned with lapis lazuli, and Kūkai, the founder of Shingon Buddhism, considered lapis lazuli a protective stone. Globally, the coffin and mask of Tutankhamun, as well as the stone tablets bearing the Ten Commandments, are said to have been made of lapis lazuli. Throughout its long history, lapis lazuli has been revered as a stone that attracts all kinds of good fortune and success, cherished as a "sacred stone" in many cultures since ancient times. *As natural stones are used, they may contain internal inclusions (cracks or inclusions) or have slight variations in shape.
