★ ★ The Horse Shoe Ring; also called a Prairie Diamond, was first created by young Americans in the 1840’s going West with little more than their wagon could hold. These folks had little money to afford a traditional engagement ring so would use their resources at hand, a horseshoe nail worked lovely. You can wear this beautiful and unique moment of history on your own hand, or use as a gift for a friend.

★ ★ These rings are made from authentic Horse Shoe Nails that have been hand ground thin to produce a very comfortable round ring without all the bulk of a normal horse shoe nail . I offer them in three styles 1. Mustad brand nails ( has the M on top ) , 2. Capewell brand nails ( has the grid pattern on top ) and
3. Liberty brand nails ( has the L on Top ) . Sizes 5-13 US on all brands . Thanks , Dave

★★ Please be sure of correct sizing to avoid resizing or exchanging. thank you

★ ★ ATTENTION , please note these novelty rings are real horse shoe nails and they are made of low carbon steel that contains a small percentage of nickel while most people won’t have issues with skin discoloration or allergic reactions, some people could depending on their body chemistry .

This horseshoe nail ring is great. I soaked it in boiled vinegar for about ten minutes to give it a nice patina. Love it!
