Sparkling Vine Rings

fun, musings, process, productLarkin HamiltonComment

This is a design Larkin prototyped quite awhile ago, then recently made a batch with some final tweaks and more gemstone color options.

Someday, Larkin would love to make their own faceted gems from local stones, but that is an investment and learning project for another time! Until then, Larkin has chosen to work with lab-created gems so as not to support questionable mining and stone cutting practices. This design is available with lab-created garnet or four shades of cubic zirconia.

Larkin has rolled the ring bands to create a comfort band curve against the skin and a square face on the outside. The curling vine does not extend all the way around the ring, leaving the band smooth and untextured between the fingers.
