Common opal does not have the play-of-color or fire of traditional precious opal. It tends to come in opaque, dreamy colors with various color patterns and tree-like matrices. It is known to be more gentle and soothing than precious opal.

Origins: India
Care: All opals are fragile like glass: be extra careful to avoid abrasive surfaces, and avoid knocking your opal against hard surfaces. Extreme temperature shifts can cause cracks. To keep your opal clean, use warm water with mild soap and a soft toothbrush or cloth. Do not use a steam cleaner or ultrasonic cleaner.

Hail to the Hailstone Ruthie B Necklace

The fish hook clasp and red silk string make this delicate pearl necklace more whimsical than a traditional pearl necklace and yet elegant. I put the clasp to the side so it can be seen since it is very unique!

Hauntingly Gorgeous

Crafted from experts. The lunar color of the sapphire occupies a liminal space betwixt pale gray and pale green, invoking the realm of lunar mysticism. The muted gold on the band is subtle and very complementary to the muted gem. If you are into flashy, look-at-my-blood-diamond ring and how much my husband makes rings, this is not for you. If you have tempered-earthy, sustainably harvested, and visceral tastes, this is your huckleberry. She absolutely loves it.

Rings to write about

Like jewelry straight from a fantasy, HBJ's collection inspires a nostalgia directly rooted in all the magical trinkets scattered throughout history. No longer does one need to forego exorbitant wealth to be hands on with relevant works that had to earn their names. These collections have it all built in right from the start, because the team at HBJ has profound (and just as magical) personal investment that lives through each piece. Every ring, necklace and adornment has its own personality, refinement, and story, all without feeling like they were mechanically reproduced, a difficult task to accomplish for any artist. Without pause I can most definitely recommend HBJ, because you're not just buying jewelry, you're part of its story.

the story of ruthie b.

An homage to Hannah's childhood and the nostalgia of her fishing home, this collection comprises gritty nautical-inspired pieces. The collection is named after Hannah's father's fishing vessel, the Ruthie B, which was named after Hannah's mother. Ruthie B. celebrates the mystery and natural peculiarity of the ocean that painted the artist’s childhood. In their weathered island home, Hannah and her six siblings learned how to entertain themselves amidst the chaos that comes with such a large family. The dingy fishing paraphernalia that littered their backyard was a playground of inspiration: raw snapshots of beauty against the clean backdrop of their hometown of Nantucket. These familiar moments inspired her to create beauty of her own. Shop the full Ruthie B. Collection
