Inspired by the rugged textures of the coastline, this one-of-a-kind signet ring features a raw sapphire nestled into solid sterling silver.
Created using traditional sand casting techniques, I added local beach sand to the casting process to create a richly textured surface, with tiny pits, irregular markings and organic contours reminiscent of weathered coastal rocks and rockpools.
The contrast between the high-shine polished silver and the raw, sandy texture gives this ring its distinctive character. The natural sapphire adds a beautiful touch of deep blue, sitting amongst the textures like a little treasure discovered along the shoreline.
Weighing a substantial 9 grams, this is a bold statement piece that celebrates the beauty of natural materials, contrasting finishes and organic forms.
Each sand casting produces its own unique textures and details, making this ring impossible to reproduce exactly.
Handmade in my Silver Linings studio in Sellicks Beach, South Australia.
