Floating Crocodile Scarab Ring with Tsavorite, Diamond & Ruby

The Floating Crocodile Scarab Ring is a striking sculptural design inspired by the powerful presence of a river crocodile. The shank is carved from rich ebony wood, creating a bold contrast against the jewel-like form that appears to float above it. The crocodile’s body is articulated with layered segments of iridescent scarab wings, carefully arranged to evoke a realistic, scale-like texture with vivid green depth. The head and tail are crafted in 9K gold and set with sparkling diamonds, adding refined brilliance to the composition. The four legs are accented with vibrant tsavorites, set in silver with black rhodium plating, enhancing contrast and detail. 

Scarab designs by LAdV are a signature expression of the House’s identity, blending symbolism, nature, and craftsmanship. Inspired by the scarab’s ancient meaning of renewal and protection, LAdV reinterprets the form through refined handwork, precious metals, and gemstones, often paired with natural materials unique to the brand. Each design is crafted slowly and in limited numbers, giving every scarab jewel its own character, movement, and soul—an artistic emblem that has become unmistakably LAdV. 

This piece took over 2-3 months to produce, with over 5-6 craftsmen involved at various stages of design, production and finishing.
