WE ARE OUT OF THE SHOP ON VACATION - We will not resume shipping until January 2025 **CHRISTMAS ORDER DEADLINE ** For all READY TO SHIP PIECES- December 17th (USA only)
October 2021 I am participating in the All Hallows Spooky art challenge Presented by Caitlin McCarthy and Mary Syring.
The prompt for October 16th is 'Memento Mori' so I have made a ring with decrepit skeleton laying it's coffin adorned by baroque ornate silver scrolls meant to be an ode to the Victorian era of Mourning jewelry.
The ring is cast in solid sterling silver, it has been oxidized and polished to bring out the details.
This ring particularly wide at top, if the largest part of your finger is the base I would recommend sizing up a quarter to half size on this one. If your knuckle is the largest part of your finger I would go with your true size.
The ring is 20mm's wide across the widest point at the top, the band is 2mm's wide.
The ring in the photos is the one you will receive it is a size 7 and ready to ship.
Happy Halloween!!!

Testimonials
"I am extremely picky with my jewelery and had been taking forever to
decide on a wedding ring. I found Swank Metalsmithing and immediately
knew it was something special. After much deliberation, I finally pulled
the trigger on a custom ring by Chelsea and I'm so glad I did. It's
absolutely beautiful, one of a kind, and the quality is
fantastic...especially for the price!" - E
I didn’t actually want an engagement or wedding ring. I’d never seen one that I liked even remotely enough to want to wear 24/7. I don’t wear jewelry anyway, plus I’m a professional athlete, so the idea of constantly removing a ring and risking losing it made it hard to justify purchasing one.
And then, on my for-you-page, I came across your rings, and on your site I saw the shadow-box bat ring. I knew immediately that I had to have it.
I love that I am supporting a small, and local business (born and raised in PDX!); I love that I could make custom choices (metal color, stone color, lab grown diamonds - this was a non-negotiable when I thought about rings); I love that I have something unique and fantastical and a little bit strange that feels like ME!!
It is the ring I always hoped for, but didn’t even know existed. Your jewelry is what made me WANT to wear an engagement ring.
I cannot wait to show it off <3
