Do you have a special person on your list who appreciates fine, handcrafted, natural wood? This two-tone ebony and red oak ring is sure to make a great gift! Each of my rings is a one of a kind work of art and you will get the one pictured.
This bent wood ring was handcrafted from rich, dark ebony on the outside with a red oak core. I sanded it by hand to silky smoothness and gave it a durable cyanoacrylate coat buffed to a high gloss. It’s truly beautiful and eye-catching.
The inner diameter is a perfect circle at US ring size 11 1/2 (21mm). It is 8 mm wide.
Do you know the difference between bent wood rings and cut wood rings? In a cut wood ring, a circle is cut from a slice of wood, drilled out and polished into a ring. While they can be quite beautiful, unfortunately this creates two weak points in the ring due to the nature of wood grain, making them more likely to break under stress.
Bent wood rings are fashioned from long strips of wood veneer, boiled or steamed for pliability and wrapped over and again in several layers. Keeping the integrity of the wood grain and having overlapping layers makes bent wood rings much more durable while preserving the beauty of natural wood jewelry.
The two tones of this ring add a hint of mystique with the black outside and subtle light inside. Imperfections in the wood and finish combine with its unique grain to make this a one of a kind gift. Add this beautiful bent wood ring to your cart as a gift for someone special or a special treat for yourself!
