This Collectible Modern Jade Sterling Silver Cocktail Ring 'Maya Princess' by Zandra Lorena Sajbin is a ring of regal beauty, crowned with faceted green jade. The Maya called jade Ya'ax Chich and regarded it as a sacred symbol of life, fertility, and power. Guatemalan artisan Zandra Lorena Sajbin handcrafts the sterling silver ring with extraordinary artistry, blending traditional reverence for jade with contemporary design. The piece reflects her values of love, resilience, and cultural preservation, honoring her heritage.

Born in Quiché in 1983 and raised in San Lucas Tolimán, this artisan discovered her passion for jewelry alongside her husband, who taught her to craft silver pieces. What began with a simple pair of earrings soon became a livelihood, sustained by perseverance and the support of her first client, her son’s pediatrician. Today, she and her husband run a workshop where they design jewelry that blends silver with jade, a stone revered by the ancient Maya as sacred and protective. Inspired by tradition, she seeks to honor her heritage while creating pieces that appeal to both locals and international visitors. Her work has been recognized by Guatemala’s Tourism Institute for its quality and artistry, and she takes pride in teaching her two sons the craft to carry on the family legacy. Each creation reflects her values of love, resilience, and cultural preservation, offering jewelry imbued with meaning and tradition.

Handcrafted from sterling silver and jade, this ring weighs 0.46 oz and has a high-polish finish. The crown/bezel measures 1.1 inches L x 0.8 inches W x 0.2 inches H, with a band width of 3 mm W. The natural stone may have variations in color and/or pattern.
