Corrugated Life Simple Ring

Description

Here is a simpler version of the corrugated life series rings! This ring is made by bending a piece of flat sterling sheet around and up (this is called anticlastic forming)to form both the band and the upper walls of the ring. Corrugated brass and fused silver push the walls open on top and threaten to spill out. The corrugated life series celebrates and immortalizes the transitory phases in the life cycle of corrugated cardboard. By handcrafting in metal tiny replicas of this machine made product, I hope to create modern talismans empowered by the sacredness of our rubbish. Oxidized and selectively polished to show texture.

This ring is a size 5 3/8, but I can make any size to order. Just let me know your size and any other preferences in the "comments to seller" section while checking out.
