The Rock


... or is it an ice cube? What do you think?


Whatever it is, it's my fave new piece of 1970s bling and I have been wearing it every day for a two weeks. Apt ring for the hot summer we've been having!



I snagged it practically before it had the chance to get on the selling floor at Continuum Modern Vintage on Pape at Danforth in Greektown.


Je love it! Rock on!

  1. Lovely bling, I like the sculptural aspect of it, is it made of lucite (plastic) or crystal? Either way it does remind me a lot of ice!

  2. That's fab, it reminds me of those polished rock rings we used to make in the 1970's. x

  3. Leilani, had a feeling you'd like this one too! How I wish we could get together for show-and-tell! It's plastic - would be even better if it were crystal!

    Vix, you made rings like this? I missed this in the 70s, pray tell!

  4. We used to be able to get these boxed "stone polishing kits" with a grinder, glue, ring bases and pendant settings. Probably far to dangerous for a child these days!
    You know how it was back in the 1970's, everything was handmade, we were obsessed. x
