This ring features a single hydrangea bud. Each bud is hand fabricated using silver imprinted with dried hydrangea flowers to create a unique tiny arrangement, consequently no two rings will be exactly the same. Please contact us with your ring size when ordering.

Sterling silver will naturally tarnish. Exposure to chemicals in perfumes, moisturisers, hairsprays etc will speed up the tarnishing and can permanently damage your jewellery. Do not wear your jewellery when swimming or bathing. To reduce tarnish use a soft silver polishing cloth regularly. Avoid polishing the blackened (oxidised) silver areas.
This piece explores themes of transforming fragility into strength.
Hydrangea petals look fragile but are amazingly strong. The petals are selected after the flowers have dried out and survived all the weather that autumn and winter can throw at them. These petals imprint into annealed silver in an incredibly detailed way. Each flower bud is ‘planted’ into a silver cup which stops the petals getting caught on clothing.
The back surface of the ring is imprinted with an additional leaf skeleton; a secret texture that is only seen by the owner when they take the ring off.
