Dopamine Howlite & Obsidian Ring

A gold-plated brass signet ring with a bold, architectural silhouette, this geometric piece pairs structured metalwork with a striking striped inlay. Topped by a flat square face, the ring is a minimalist high-contrast canvas featuring alternating bands of natural howlite and obsidian set into a finely detailed gold-plated bronze base. Part of the whimsical Desire collection by Maria Frering—an exploration of the parallels between eating candy and wearing jewelry—the design investigates how color and texture trigger brief moments of dopamine-fueled delight. Its neutral palette and sculptural form create a sophisticated, unisex accessory that pairs effortlessly with other pieces from the Desire line. Note: all stones are natural and may vary slightly in tone and pattern from images.

Key Features:

• Striped Inlay: Graphic black and white stripes of obsidian and howlite.
• Square Face: Structured, architectural signet silhouette.
• Unisex Appeal: minimalist design suitable for all genders.
• Crafted in Brazil.

This ring has a looser fit by design; we recommend going down a size if you prefer a more snug fit.
