Sometimes my favourite designs come not from fighting a form out of wax but listlessly keeping my anxious hands busy. I had some small skulls that I had carved out of wax and was shuffling them around when the realisation that a small collection of heads encircling my finger would tickle my funny bone and tick the most important box in my personal collection of jewellery: it would be a design that I could wear day in and day out.
I love a statement piece but I’ve also decided that I need not wait for an opportunity to wear my things. And so: I need to be able to use my hands without careful thought and break into a run at any moment.
What turned out as a ring that I liked for myself ended up being moulded and cast for the store and remains one of four rings that I never take off, the others being the larger Skull Ring and my wedding rings.
The Micro Skull Band Ring is stackable. Cast in 925 sterling silver and oxidised for depth.
