Black Spinel Solitaire Ring with Recycled AS WELL as Recycled Sterling Silver.

This ring is given an oxidized finish to Blacken the silver. Oxidation wears over time but can be reapplied - just write us on how to :)

Spinel is a Precious stone, along with Rubies, Sapphires, Emeralds and Diamonds, but is perhaps less well known.
Spinel is phenomenally durable, a 9 on the MOHS hardness scale, and this stone is a whopping 12mm across, just around 1/2 an inch.
The martini glass shape is sexy as a little black dress, and will make any woman feel a burning desire for a......
Night on the town. Bow chicka.

The solitaire cocktail ring sits about 8mm off the finger.

This setting was hand carved in wax, cast in metal, and hand polished, prepped, soldered and set in our workshop in Keene, NH . From concept to completion all settings are handcrafted and never utilize prefabricated components bought from jewelry supply catalogs.About my work:
I make all of my jewelry in my small workshop in Keene, New Hampshire. Handmade jewelry is my passion and this is a dream come true for me and I appreciate all of your support throughout the years.

Recycled Metals and Ethically Sourced Gemstones:
I only use recycled metals to minimize the effect of mining on the environment. I use ethically sourced conflict-free gemstones from all over the world.

Custom Work:
I can customize this piece in different metals or with a different gemstone. I would also be thrilled to work with you on a completely custom piece where we work together to create the piece you are envisioning. Please send me a message if you are interested.

Cleaning and Maintenance:
To eliminate the need to clean often simply rinse a ring every time you wash your hands and remove it during lotion application, returning it when your hands are dry.
Avoid cleaning with chemicals, including bleach, chlorine and jewelry dips. These can actually damage to metal and some soft gemstones. There are a number of ways to clean your gemstone and precious metal jewelry, the simplest and least expensive of which is using a hot water soak. Add a pinch of Oxyclean to a cup of hot (NOT boiling) water. Soak for 10 minutes, use a soft bristled toothbrush to remove any residual debris under the stone and in crevasses. Rinse
well and dry. I love Wrights Silver polish and stock it in our Online shop as an add on. Just rub with a cloth and sterling is given a beautiful clean shine. Ultrasonic cleaners use high frequency sound waves to loosen debris and work very nicely.
