"Atara" means "crown"....we thought it was perfect for this mermaid-inspiring sapphire! This ring is one of a kind, however, please contact us for custom work (via Custom page, if available). This ring is sold by itself, however the photos show this ring paired with our Arch ring (star-scattered texture round version) and also our Halo ring (it can be made with a similar colored green sapphire instead of the pictured champagne diamond if desired).

- RESIZING INFO (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY): complimentary in-house resizing up or down UP TO 2 whole sizes takes 10 business days to complete as it is not a fast process and takes several hours of careful work. Please include a note in the "notes" section at checkout before choosing payment selection and also send me an email: nicole [at] knotandsplice.com with the resizing request. Once a piece has been shipped out, resizing at a later date will incur a fee. If you'd like information on whether I can resize this ring up or down more than 2 sizes, please email me first to discuss: nicole [at] knotandsplice.com.

- This piece was completely hand-carved in wax by the artist with beautiful organic textures and then cast in 14K rose gold. It was then carefully polished and each stone hand-set using old world goldsmithing skills by Nicole Jo Melton. It features a unique longer talon prong setting in the center (with the stone sitting low into the ring) and two hand-engraved bead-set sapphires as accents. It is the perfect ring for a nature and art lover...Atara: "crowned", "blessed".

Please note: While every effort is made to photograph the items to be an accurate representation, photography and computer monitors have limitations and differences. These images were taken with a Canon DSLR and macro lens (this shows much more detail than the eye can see). Colors and brightness may vary on different devices. I believe these pieces look so much prettier in person when held in the hand and admired by the eye (I've also been told this many times by Knot & Splice customers). I hope you're delighted when you receive your special piece in the mail.
