This Victorian ring is fashioned in rose gold with a domed head adorned with turquoise pavé. “Pavé” is an elegant French word for something very literal—it simply means that the stones are “paved” on to a particular surface. The pavé style of setting makes for an incredible visual effect with a bright stone like turquoise. This ring is an especially lovely variation on the pavé style with cabochons of varying sizes encircling a larger center stone.
