Bold Snail Shell Ring 18k

This is a bold 18k gold shell ring that began as a worn snail shell found on the National Seashore in Cape Hatteras, North Carolina. I consider this to be the perfect statement ring for summer or year round. The weight is substantial yet comfortable to wear all day-everyday.

I have collected so many shells and pieces of shells over the years, that I have actually considered taking them back to the beach. Cape Hatteras National Seashore is a wild and beautiful place. It's unusual to find whole shells.

Using the shell fragment for the top I sculpted the ring from a block of wax. It is cast in re-cycled 18k yellow gold. The entire ring is hand finished with a satin/brushed finish on the outside. Inside the ring is high polish.

Due to rising gold prices this is SPECIAL ORDER ONLY--Ships within 3 weeks. Please note your ring size. Shown in size 7. Order up to size 8.

The ring is cast from a mold of my original design. Please state your ring size when ordering. Pricing is for size 6 to 8. It is shown with a brushed finish. It will gain character with wear like the shells from the beach it came from.
