Fabulous coordinating ring, earrings and brooch set by Ricardo Salas for MATL arrays brilliant sky-blue seed cabochons against old silver and deep purple pyramid-cut amethysts. Intricately detailed, roped bezel settings, hammered wire spirals and beads draw the eye to the magical brooch, a reverently executed work of folk art. The spectacular ring picks up the eye-popping colorway, intricate rope bezel detailing and bead accents. Simple earrings provide impeccable adornment, their royal hue deepened by a chunky pyramid cut. Rare, intact and versatile vintage set, an elegant must-have for any MATL collector!
