Featuring a 5mm (1/2 carat) emerald held delicately in place by two adjoining thistles, this ring represents the fusion of Scottish heritage and modern engagement rings. With the stems of each thistle woven together, the ring is emblematic of the union of eternal love and the interweaving of marriage. This ring is made to last a lifetime, and created in the tradition of rings meant to represent great devotion and bliss.

We can make this ring with different-sized stones, or different types of stones upon request.

The thistle has been an enduring symbol of Scotland and Scottish heritage for hundreds of years. According to a legend, an invading Norse army was attempting to sneak up at night upon a Scottish army's encampment. During this operation one barefoot Norseman had the misfortune to step upon a thistle, causing him to cry out in pain, thus alerting Scots to the presence of the Norse invaders. The thistle has been the national emblem of Scotland since the reign of Alexander III and was used on silver coins. It is also used to symbolize connection with Scotland overseas. For example, in Canada, it is one of the four floral emblems on the flag of Montreal; in the US, Carnegie Mellon University features the thistle in its crest in honor of the Scottish heritage of its founder, Andrew Carnegie.

Each ring is cast in solid sterling silver, and we offer different finishing options. The finishes used in the photos are brushed with patina followed by polished without patina. Please choose finishes from the drop-down menu.

Cast in solid sterling silver, these rings are made of 100% recycled metal. All stones are conflict-free, and we personally choose all of our own stones to ensure quality. We polish these rings but can put a brushed finish on these rings upon request.

We also offer this ring in gold, or platinum here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/461353670/

Every ring is made to order and in YOUR CUSTOM size. Please buy our refundable ring sizer (BEFORE ORDERING) as most rings cannot be resized because of the continuous knotwork: www.etsy.com/listing/937178260

Each one of these rings is individually made in your size so the width of the ring varies depending on how wide your finger is, so all rings match proportionally (see the chart below to see how big the ring is in your size). We can vary the width, please message us if you'd like a custom width.

Our rings can be made in any material from Silver to 18K gold, platinum, and everything in between. We, please ask us if you intend to purchase a set of rings. We have many other designs not yet listed on Etsy, if you have a request for a specific knot or design, don't hesitate to contact us!

Each one of these Celtic designs is our own creation, from design to finish. Our small team of 3 creates each piece from scratch, and hand finish and polish each one. All jewelry is made in the USA from recycled materials and set with lab or conflict-free stones. We have a wide array of 100's of designs of rings, pendants, and earrings not listed in our store, as well as doing custom jewelry design and creation. Please visit our site

Shop confidently on Etsy knowing if something goes wrong with an order, we've got your back for all eligible purchases — see program terms

PLEASE DO NOT PURCHASE A STANDARD LISTING.

Depending on your needs, we may accept custom requests. Please send us:

1. Ring Size
2. Metal - Sterling, Gold (include 10k 14k 18k and COLOR), Platinum
3. Design # you are interested in (# at end of listing ex. 1052)
4. Description of changes. Add if ring is for woman, man, engagement
5. Wedding Date

If it's not based on one of our existing designs, you will NEED to send us a sketch.

We will give you a quote and if you agree, begin working on your custom design. This can take 4-12 weeks. Once you approve the design, we will create a custom listing for purchase. Upon full payment, your ring will enter production which takes 4-6 weeks.

ALL QUOTES ARE IN USD and do not include taxes/import fees

Our rings are made with lab-grown stones. These are REAL STONES (not fake cubic zirconia) and they are chemically identical to naturally occurring ones, but they are better for the earth because we can find them in a lab versus having to dig randomly in the soil.

We can make any ring in sterling silver, gold (10K, 14K, 18K, yellow, white, or rose) or platinum. We do not offer tungsten, steel, or titanium.

All our rings are made custom to your exact ordered size (we highly, highly suggest you purchase our refundable ring sizer). https://www.etsy.com/listing/93717826

For rings with stones or continuous knotwork (80% of our designs), we cannot resize the ring and you will need to purchase a brand new ring at 35% of the original cost to cover the labor required to make a new ring. Creating a new ring takes our standard 4-6 weeks. We only offer this discounted remake service once; if you order the incorrect size again, you will have to purchase the ring at full value. We know this is frustrating but we are a small business.

You must contact us within 3 days of receiving your ring to tell us if you need a resize. Original ring must be returned.

For purchases over $400, we offer a 2 payment layaway option.
For purchases over $800, we offer 2 or 4 payment layaway option.
For purchases over $1500, we offer 2, 4 or 6 layaway option.

We are flexible on finish dates, but we require rings to be paid in full before we begin working on them (rings take 4-6 weeks to create). Please complete all payments 3 months before any special dates, wedding, anniversary etc to allow enough time for production and rare shipping delays.

Please note - CUSTOM ORDERS are not eligible for layaway options. We require payment in full.

We suggest polished + patina for most rings.

Patina is a method of darkening metal through oxidation. This allows small details to stand out and gives the ring a beautiful contrast. Almost all our photos use patina.

Polish is the standard finish you see in high end jewelry - bright, shiny and very reflective.

Brushed is a matte finish recommended for those who are hard on their hands or do rough work. The surface will not be shiny so it hides any scuffs that might occur during wear. Be warned, this will look much duller than our polished finish.

Please see last image in listings for examples of the different finish styles.

We are sorry, but we cannot tell you what the cost of import or custom fees will be. This is specific to your country and region. Please contact your local post office or government.

This estimator may be helpful. Please note, we are not affiliated with this site and are not liable for the import fees it estimates for you. It is just to give a helpful general idea.

Our rings are handmade and most take 5 weeks to craft. You can upgrade your shipping at checkout to a 2 day express option (USA)and add in the order notes the day of your wedding. We will try our best for requests that are within the 4-5 week mark, but we cannot make any guarantees. 2tone rings, platinum and rings with gemstones will take longer than solid wedding bands.

Upgrading your shipping option will decrease transit time but it does not mean production time will be decreased.
