**This Ring Can Be Resized.

The world is made of shapes. Some are rigid and logical, while others are flowing and organic. Shapes remind us of childhood—learning the names of each shape, selecting our favorite shape.

Shapes also remind us to be present. What a beautiful thing to notice the form and structure of our surroundings. To observe the design of the objects in our lives. To bear witness to nature's stunning creations.

Among the world's most perfect shapes is the hexagon. Even the word is sexy. But the ubiquity and utility of this six-sided marvel is even sexier. 

Hexagons are the most incredible marriage of beauty and efficiency. Mathematicians love hexagons due to their undeniable efficiency. They fit together without any gaps and can bear the most pressure with the least amount of material. There is no wasted space. The hexagon is one of the most commonly occurring shapes in nature. Think of a honeycomb, the eyes of a fly, or the tiny structure of a snowflake. Even the molecular structure of carbon is hexagonal. 

Our love of hexagons is coded into our very essence, as the chemical bonds on DNA take a hexagonal form. But it's not just our planet where hexagons pop up. Saturn has a cloud formation over its North Pole that invariably takes the shape of a hexagon. Scientists do not know why but leading theories revolve around atmospheric flows.

This ring is part of our newest collection and the only one with a garnet of this unique hue. But we just knew that this 1.36ct chocolate-orange garnet had to be placed in a perfect hexagonal bed of 18K silky gold goodness. It’s reminiscent of a perfectly crisp late afternoon dream.
