Desert Bloom | Nephrite & Arizona Gem Silica Inlay Ring | Size 7

A substantial one-of-one carved nephrite band, reworked and finished in the Bootleg Silver Co. studio with an inlay of Arizona gem silica.

This is the thickest of the current nephrite bands, with a broad, sculptural profile and deep olive-green color that becomes more translucent when held to light. The band was sourced from a master carver’s discard material, then refinished, polished, and given new life through the addition of a vivid Arizona gem silica inlay along both edges.

The contrast between the earthy nephrite and the bright blue-green gem silica creates a distinctly Bootleg Silver Co. interpretation of Desert Bloom — jade meeting the American Southwest through material, color, and handwork.
