The path was clear enough to go,
A narrow line I used to know,
By day it wound through field and pine,
By night it felt no longer mine.
The moon had risen, calm and clear,
And laid its light on things below—
On roots that crossed, on stones that lay,
On branches leaning in my way.
I could have turned. The road was near.
The open field, the edges clear.
But something in the silvered ground
Persuaded me to walk around.
And so I went a little more,
Past where I’d ever gone before—
Not lost, not found, but simply there,
With moonlight laid in cool night air.
At last I stopped. The trees grew thin.
The path bent back the way I’d been.
I stood a moment, then withdrew—
The woods held on to what they knew.
And when I reached the road again,
It seemed unchanged—but I knew then
The night had followed, soft and deep,
A quiet thing I’d get to keep.
The band carries a bark-like pattern that runs along the gold. It gives the ring a natural feel without being overly literal.
At the center is a generously sized moonstone, measuring 10 x 8 millimeters.
The scale matters here.
It gives the stone room to show what moonstone does best, a soft, shifting glow that moves across the surface as the ring turns. The light doesn’t flash. It gathers and drifts, quietly appearing and fading.
The setting is simple, allowing the gem to sit low and comfortably on the hand. The gold bezel frames the moonstone with just enough weight to balance its softness.
Everything works together.
The texture of the band grounds the piece.
The moonstone brings the light.
A ring that feels natural, easy to wear, and distinctive.

Forgotten Moonstone
The designer of this piece purchased a jewelry manufacturer many years ago. On the day he was handed the keys, he opened the shop and began taking inventory—trying to understand exactly what he had just acquired.
On a recent visit, he told me about one moment he still remembers clearly. Inside a safe, he found a small box of moonstones.
The gems were extraordinary.
He said they were of a quality that simply doesn’t exist today. In fact, the moonstones alone were worth nearly a fifth of what he had paid for the entire company.
