>>  I love the whole trompe de l'oeil effect, so of course this ring got me.  The designer is Edouard Larmaraud, a French industrial designer who was unable to buy a big rock for his girlfriend, so he made this ring instead, with a magnifying glass to make a smaller stone appear to be a huge chunk of ice.  I don't know how practical it is, I think I would break the crystal magnifier upon first wear, but maybe if his girlfriend is super dainty it might work out...
