I broke my ring finger last year and needed a new wedding band. This hinged ring is the perfect solution! Beautifully made and perfect fit, and Christine got it to me extra fast for a special event. Thanks!

My fiancé has an old athletic injury on his knuckle so we were looking for a hinged wedding band. Christine stayed in contact with me from the moment I emailed her until the band arrived at our home . The professionalism she displayed can’t be matched and the band came out AMAZING!!!! She is the absolute best.

Just got the ring and am very happy! It looks amazing outside of a noticeable line and lack of polished finish where the metal comes together in the back. Sent my Fiance on a scavenger hunt through our first couple dates and met him waiting with a box of flours (a play on flowers) because his favorite movie is Stranger Than Fiction. He was beyond happy with his ring and the method of delivery. Thank you!
About
Christine is a metalsmith & jeweler in Detroit, MI.
Christine’s work travels between lovely objects for every day to fanciful works of fiction for exhibition and the runway environment. In either case you can be assured that all work is hand made by Christine and that she strives to be as eco-conscience and good citizen minded as she can be. Christine loves interacting with the world, feel free to contact her with questions (her work, technical, and other), custom requests or to shoot the breeze.
In Christine's spare time she likes to harass her significant other, repair her 1920's home located in the D (Detroit), walk her dog Gretel, go for bike rides, eat, and vacation far far away.
Watch Christine make her cufflinks on Detroit Performs (local PBS show!) :

I believe in making all my work by hand. The only item I buy are earring backs and really small chain. In addition, etsy is now asking its makers to share any outside help they may use in creating their work. Having said that here it is:
-
Gretel
Copilot
I make sure Christine is either working, walking or eating!
Production partners
-
AU Enterprises
Berkley, MI
AU Enterprises is a small independent shop in Berkeley, MI. When there is a job that I can not do in house, such as engraving, I rely on AU Enterprises, because I know they will do a great job.

Returns and exchanges
Custom orders, including all rings and any special requests, I love you and want to work with you, as I see it, if I can I will. I love to work on custom orders but if you request it and I make it, and you don't like the results, I am not responsible. No refund or exchange.
***Please, please, please know your ring size! If you dont know it, please do not guess as the size is inevitably wrong. I have a handy ring sizer that I would love to send you to avoid having to resize. A handy tip for surprises, grab your loved ones day rings and take them to a local jeweler for sizing. I charge $30 for most ring resizing, which will include return shipping. If your ring is engraved, it may have to be re-engraved or re-made depending on the size of the engraving and how much resizing is necessary. On hinged rings, the ring WILL have to be remade.
Please contact me with any resizing issues before mailing your package out. I recommend using usps priority with tracking and sending me the tracking number once you have it, so that I can keep a look out.

I typically ship most items within 1-3 days of payment, custom items may take 1-3 weeks depending on if engraving is required. International orders can take a bit longer due to customs.
