"Rune" is derived from the Old Norse word rún meaning "secret lore". This piece features three talon prongs that clasp raw Montana sapphires just as they are claimed from the earth. The band is our organic woodland style textured band. This design is as if plucked from Middle Earth.

Besides being imbued with the good energy it is made with, sapphire is a stone of royalty. It is said to protect the mind against negative energies, provide a calming effect, and strengthen intuition/clarity. Sapphire is a strong gemstone that is commonly used in daily wear pieces such as bridal.

A note from the artist: Many years ago, I had a 3-stone prong Montana sapphire ring design that some may remember. This is the more grown-up artist in the full vision version of the ring from so long ago on my journey. Durability and wearability are two companions of beauty in my work. Every piece is made with love—I hope you wear this ring to remind yourself of the beauty and magic that exists in the natural world and within yourself.

These have been consciously mined from Rock Creek, Montana. Colors can range from pastel colors teal/blue, yellow, white, peachy-orange-gold, green. The colors of sapphires in each ring are set and sold as is. For a made to order ring with stone color requests, please see our made to order listing.

      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.
