Inspired by the bypass design, this Tahitian cultured pearl solitaire ring is a classy yet designer piece of jewel. Symbol of a union of two souls with forever love and commitment, this ring is crafted with a luminous finish over sterling silver. The zircon set on both sides of the pearl adds a perfect amount of shimmers to this pearl ring. A cultured pearl is a real pearl grown in a shellfish or mollusk. Instead of waiting for an irritant, like a piece of sand or small rock, to enter the shell, they are "seeded" by hand and in large quantities, using a bit of shell from a sacrificed mollusk.
