A Star of David and Chai Ring
A sterling and gold ring with a star-cut glacier blue topaz in a gold bezel, flanked by gold chai.

Dawn's ring sets a glacier blue topaz cut as a Star of David in a gold bezel on sterling silver, with a gold chai on each side.
Examples of star-cut stones were compared before the topaz was chosen. The chai were carved in wax and cast, then soldered to the ring before setting.
