Custom made Renaissance Cigar band ring in silver and copper hues, Valentines Gifts for her, Made in Greece

This listing features the Cigar band ring, whose design I fell in love at first sight! It is inspired by Roman and Medieval rings. The original design is from a well known beadwork artist, Heather Kingsley-Heath.

This statement ring is the most comfortable beaded ring you will ever wear. Very lightweight, you can hardly feel it on.

It has been crafted by me, with love, care and inspiration, using premium quality Japanese beads, in galvanized silver, grey-silver and matte copper hues. Dainty texture is created with size 15 and 11 delica beads, with a gentle gleam of faceted crystals in matching hues, at the heart of the design. Each tiny seed bead has been woven one by one, using a combination of two off-loom techniques, the peyote and Heather's albion stitch and a highly durable thread for weaving.

SouSou jewelry is made only with the highest quality materials and with proper care it can last a lifetime!

Bead-woven rings are great for anyone with metal sensitivities, as they are made only with glass beads.

This stunning piece is approximately 3.9 cm (1.5 inch) long, its band is 0.6 cm (0.2 inch) wide. It is a 7 US size (54.5-56 EU size).

If you need a different size, you can choose it from the list above, or message me. If you don't know your size, you can follow the instructions below. For converting to other international sizes corresponding to US, use an International Ring Size Chart, like the ones in the last photos.

❤️ Care instructions:
Glass beads are not fond of water! These pieces are delicate. Please don’t wear your jewel while bathing, swimming or doing sports.
Don't put perfume or body lotion on any of the handmade items.
Clean with a soft cloth.

You can wear the Cigar band ring all day long, match it with almost any outfit and let others do all the compliments!

How to determine your ring size
*******************************************************************************************
- Make sure your finger is at a normal body temperature; fingers can shrink or expand when cold or hot.
- Use a thin stripe of paper (about 1 cm width) and wrap it around your finger; make sure the paper is below the joint of your finger and close to your knuckle.
- Mark the spot where the paper meets and measure the paper distance with a ruler.
- Use the following chart to find your ring size.

Size 4: 1 13/16 inches --> 4.6 - 4.8 centimeters (cm)
Size 5: 1 15/16 inches --> 4.9 - 5.1 centimeters (cm)
Size 6: 2 1/16 inches --> 5.2 - 5.3 centimeters (cm)
Size 7: 2 1/8 inches --> 5.4 - 5.6 centimeters (cm)
Size 8: 2 1/4 inches --> 5.7 - 5.8 centimeters (cm)
Size 9: 2 5/16 inches --> 5.9 - 6.1 centimeters (cm)
Size 10: 2 7/16 inches --> 6.2 - 6.3 centimeters (cm)
Size 11: 2 9/16 inches --> 6.4 - 6.6 centimeters (cm)
Size 12: 2 5/8 inches --> 6.7 - 6.8 centimeters (cm)
Size 13: 2 3/4 inches --> 6.9 - 7.1 centimeters (cm)
Size 14: 2 7/8 inches --> 7.2 - 7.4 centimeters (cm)

Rings also come in half sizes, in case your measurement falls in between two whole sizes. In that case, it is advisable to order the larger size.

Please be certain of your ring size when ordering a beaded ring. Custom rings cannot be exchanged or returned because the wrong size was ordered. Returns and exchanges are provided only if the ring is defective. All SouSou rings are tightly woven and do not stretch.
