It sure is! I so wish it was mine, but sadly it was a commissioned piece and one-off. The jeweller told me she made it for a client who wanted a piece to remind her of Hong Kong (where I live & where the designer is based). The red / pink stone is symbolic of Chinese Hong Kong and the architectural elements are representative of HK skyscrapers.

It''s a stunning piece and the tourmaline is gorgeous, but I''d never be able to wear it anywhere. I''m such a klutz, I''d be continually knocking such a tall ring against things.

Nice treatment! Excellent symbolism, and great color! I love that red - right up there with colorless!...and blue, and green, of course.
