The Striped Stone Ring

Cast in steel with the weight of mineral depths, this ring holds three stone-names: the blue-dark of lapis, the soft grey of pearl, the clear turn of turquoise. Each surface catches light like water held still. The form is spare and oval, a geometry that belongs to both earth and hand. Wear it as a tether to what endures. In the morning, before ritual or work, feel its cool presence settle into bone. It asks nothing but to rest against skin, a small ceremony of grounding repeated each day.
