The Guardians Art Ring by Eily O Connell unveils an enchanting narrative inspired by the mysterious depths of the sea. Crafted with artistic finesse, this one-of-a-kind ring portrays a bi-coloured sapphire in mesmerising green and yellow hues, symbolising the hidden treasures guarded by the mystical beings of the deep. Positioned above a bed of glossy coral, the sapphire reflects an array of captivating colours. The piece invites exploration, hinting at concealed glistening secrets nestled among the intricate enamel details, making it a unique and evocative creation that captures the essence of the ocean’s enigmatic beauty.

Eily says about her Art Ring:

“Lurking beneath the surface of the sea there are all sorts of treasures tucked away, protected by tiny guardians of the deep. A unique, bi-coloured sapphire in green and yellow hues is safely held above a bed of glossy coral in reflecting colours. Here you will find more glistening secrets cloaked amongst the enamel”.
