The iconic Claude ring, with its aesthetic multiplicity, is an element in constant transformation. Based on extensive research and production with experienced lapidaries, WEE presents the new CLAUDE MINERAL. Entirely sculpted and cut in natural quartz, three new Claudes are born from this experience: Onyx, Jasper and Tiger’s Eye.
Each ring, made from a shard of raw quartz, is painstakingly carved by our lapidaries. This cutting, lapping and polishing process takes around 130 hours. An exquisite work.

Today, here at Rural Tourism of Cotton, is a very special day for me, because I learned what these clothes are, I already imagined them and got to know them through films, but being here and meeting in person, getting to know the farm, the way the painters are treated, generates wealth for our Brazil. I end my day grateful to Agroligadas and immensely happy”.
