Do you have a special person on your list who appreciates fine, handcrafted, natural wood? This two-tone wood and stainless steel 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 black ebony and white birch with a primavera base, sanded by hand to silky smoothness. The outer, two-tone colors give a “duality of man” theme while the soft brown primavera inner remains your secret. This ring is eye-catchingly beautiful.

After sanding, the wood was given a light coat of 100% pure tung oil to bring out the rich grain. It then received a thin cyanoacrylate coat for durability buffed to a glossy shine.

The inner diameter is a perfect circle at U.S. size 12 3/4 (22 mm). The width is a HUGE 16 mm! It’ll make a great thumb ring for the right person.

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 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.

This and all my wood rings are bent wood.

Add this beautiful bent wood and stainless steel ring to your cart as a gift for someone special or a special treat for yourself!
