Product Details

Named for Freya, the Norse Goddess of Love, Beauty, Fertility, and War, this ring embodies the full spectrum of divine feminine power. Freya, whose name means "Lady," presided over love, passion, beauty, magic, gold, war, and death—teaching us that true love encompasses all facets of existence, that authentic devotion honors both light and shadow, and that the fiercest hearts love most deeply.

Freya wept tears of pure gold for her beloved, commanded powerful seiðr magic, wore the legendary Brísingamen necklace, and rode into battle alongside the Valkyries. She represents love that is both tender and fierce, beauty that encompasses strength, and devotion chosen by those who bow to no one yet choose to stand beside another as sovereign equals.

This ring is crafted for those who understand that love is not weakness but the greatest courage, that commitment requires both passion and power, and that the most sacred unions honor the complete, complex wholeness of each soul.

Black Diamond: The Stone of Unshakeable Power

At the heart of this masterpiece sits a full 1-carat brilliant round black diamond—a gemstone that captures the mystery of night skies, the depth of ancient earth, and the cosmic origins of love itself. Known as the "Stone of Inner Strength," black diamonds symbolize unwavering resolve, grounding energy, protection, and the courage to embrace authentic love over conventional expectation.

Unlike traditional white diamonds valued for transparency, black diamonds embrace opacity and depth. They absorb light and transform it into mesmerizing brilliance, creating a presence that speaks to integrated shadows, transformed wounds, and darkness alchemized into sovereign strength.

The brilliant round cut maximizes the diamond's light performance, creating exceptional sparkle despite the stone's dark hue. This 1-carat size ensures commanding presence—substantial enough to be a true statement piece, meaningful enough to carry the weight of lifelong devotion.

Paraiba Tourmaline: The Rarest Gemstone on Earth

Crowning this extraordinary design are two Paraiba tourmaline gems—among the rarest and most coveted gemstones in existence. Discovered in 1989 in the Brazilian state of Paraíba, these neon-hued treasures exhibit an electric blue-green glow unlike any other gemstone on earth.

Paraiba tourmaline's vivid, almost otherworldly luminescence comes from trace amounts of copper and manganese—a combination so rare that these stones are found in only a handful of locations worldwide and command prices rivaling or exceeding fine diamonds. Natural Paraiba tourmaline is so scarce that less than one tenth of one percent of all tourmalines mined are Paraiba quality.

Symbolism of Paraiba:

These electric blue-green gems evoke the colors of tropical waters, aurora borealis, and the magical realms between earth and sky. In Freya's mythology, she traveled between worlds—earth, Asgard, and the underworld—just as Paraiba tourmaline seems to glow with light from another dimension.

Paraiba tourmaline is believed to enhance communication, awaken creativity, open the heart and throat chakras, and connect the physical and spiritual realms. Its presence in this ring symbolizes love that transcends ordinary boundaries, partnership that awakens higher consciousness, and devotion that illuminates like sacred fire.

The pairing of black diamond (earth, grounding, protection) with Paraiba tourmaline (sky, elevation, divine connection) creates perfect balance—shadow and light, earth and heaven, human and divine united in sacred harmony.

Red Diamond Accents: Twelve Flames of Passion

Surrounding the center stone are twelve red diamond accents—rare gems representing the eternal flame of passion, the life force energy that sustains love, and the blood oath of devotion freely given. Even treated red diamonds are exceptionally uncommon, their crimson fire catching light like sacred embers.

The number twelve holds powerful symbolism: the twelve months of the year (love through all seasons), twelve zodiac signs (cosmic wholeness), and in Norse tradition, twelve great halls of Asgard. These twelve flames represent completeness, eternal cycles, and love that burns bright through every phase of life.

Symbolism & Sacred Meaning:

This ring embodies Freya's essence completely: the goddess who loved deeply, fought fiercely, wept golden tears, commanded magic, and chose her own destiny. The combination of black diamond (her connection to death and the underworld), electric blue Paraiba (her heavenly beauty and magic), and red diamonds (her passionate nature and association with gold) creates a trinity representing Freya's complete power.

The 2mm rose gold band represents the warm blush of dawn, the flush of passion, and Freya's golden tears transformed into metal—substantial enough to support lifelong promises, refined enough for everyday elegance.

IMPERATRIX Setting: The Empress Design

The IMPERATRIX (Empress) setting features a bold 4-prong solitaire design that elevates the black diamond while showcasing the Paraiba tourmaline and red diamond accents in a crown-like arrangement. This regal setting provides secure hold while maximizing light performance and visual drama.

This design speaks to those who appreciate classic elegance reimagined with extraordinary gemstones—honoring timeless structure while celebrating the exceptional, rare, and utterly unique.

18K Rose Gold: Freya's Sacred Metal

This signature ring is crafted exclusively in 18K rose gold—the metal of love, compassion, and emotional depth. Rose gold's warm, romantic hue perfectly complements the black diamond's mysterious darkness, Paraiba tourmaline's electric brilliance, and red diamonds' passionate fire.

The copper content in rose gold creates its signature blush tone while grounding celestial energies into compassionate, heart-centered action. This is the perfect metal for Freya, goddess of love and gold, whose tears of devotion fell to earth as golden treasures.

Historical and Occult Symbolism:

Throughout Norse mythology, Freya was associated with precious metals and gemstones. Her famous Brísingamen necklace was forged by four dwarf brothers and represented beauty, power, and sovereignty claimed through personal courage and choice.

Black diamonds were believed to be fragments of fallen stars carrying cosmic wisdom. Paraiba tourmaline, though discovered recently, possesses the otherworldly glow that ancient cultures would have attributed to divine magic. Red stones throughout history represented life force, passion, and the sacred blood of commitment.

Together, these gemstones create a modern interpretation of Freya's legendary adornments—a ring that honors ancient goddess energy while embracing contemporary rarity and beauty.
