Collection

The Lode

Lode gold is still in the rock, in veins, along faults, where it shows at the surface. These rings are mostly polished gold with one run of nugget relief through them, the way a vein crosses stone.

The rings

Lode gold stays in the rock, so most of these rings are polished gold with the relief in one place: a diagonal strip on Fault Line, a single patch on Outcrop, a crest on Crest. California’s Mother Lode is a belt of quartz veins about 120 miles long, its gold set in milky white quartz.
