Roberto Cavalli Tiger's Eye Snake Ring: It's the Thrill of the Fight

robertocavalli_tigereyesnakering.jpg

Golden-brownish Tiger’s eye has always had such old look to it, even on spanking new pieces, and not necessarily in a good vintage-treasure sort of way. Leave it to Roberto Cavalli, who has entwined the gemstone in the menacing coil of a snake, and the fight between wildcat and reptile is on! The snake setting makes the large Tiger’s eye edgy and striking – the result is a true statement ring. Antiqued gold-plated brass snake scales, a detail that composes the actual ring and goes almost all the way around your finger, look anything but antiquated. Some ensembles demand a ring with some cocktail-inspired chunk to it and this dynamic whopper is just the thing. On Net-a-Porter for $290.

Pair with: Contrast the amber color to deep blood-red and achieve textural impact by clutching L’Wren Scott’s floral pattern-stamped leather pouchette in the same hand. L’Wren Scott Stamped Leather Pouchette, $1,730.
