The High Low | Agate Rings, $100

By Jennifer Kim

Good style mixes high-ticket items with brilliant but affordable gets. In this column, T’s fashion team finds the cheap and the chic.

What: Druzy Agate Rings from Lunessa Collection
How Much: $100, at Lunessa.com
Who: Jennifer Kim, T Magazine’s jewelry associate

These agate rings with natural druzy crystal formations forecast sunny days ahead. Hand-cut and made in Brazil, they bring to mind sparkling sandy beaches (spring break, anyone?). While most crystal rings are heavy or cumbersome — too much bang for the buck — these have a good weight and a practical shape that prevents them from getting caught in anything, aside from, say, a vacation snapshot!
