Sterling Silver Ring with Citrine Stone and Handcrafted Hammered Band

Handcrafted with a concentration on artisan elements to produce a truly unique design, this sterling silver ring combines a tapered adjustable band with riveting hammered pattern, 8mm Citrine stone, and intriguing asymmetry that is revealed through closer inspection of the placement of the individual elements as a surprise twist on a classic design.

The sterling silver band was cut by hand from a solid 18 gauge sterling silver sheet and mirrors a typical adjustable ring, however the artistic design twist is exaggerated by tapering the band from 10mm down to 6mm and hammering the sterling silver with a riveting hammer instead of a typical ball hammer. While the tree bark patterns are synonymous with more rustic styles such as this sterling silver tree bark ring set https://www.etsy.com/listing/254833876/tree-bark-hammered-sterling-silver-ring , we decided to focus on elegance over rustic and polish the ring to medium luster. The final element completing this ring is the 8mm genuine yellow-orange citrine stone which was placed asymmetrically on the widest end of the band rather than dead center as a departure from the rigid precision and common place practices seen in automated mass production.

As photographed, the ring is adjustable and crafted in a size 6, however you can order your ring in any size by entering your requests in the notes at check out. Every element of this ring can also be customized including the choice of gemstones, birthstones, precious stones, and other metals such as 14k gold or platinum.
