Sand Cast Yellow Sapphire Ring

£260.00

Sterling silver ring with a yellow Sapphire. This piece has a rustic and organic feel and appearence, offering a unique alternative to the typical engagement ring.

This piece is made using the ancient method of sand casting, where molten Sterling silver is poured in a sand mold. Each mold is prepared to yield a ring in the size needed for each customer and the texture is added by hand with a very small tool before pouring the metal. The whole process is unique to each ring, and therefore the result is a one of a kind piece that cannot be exactly replicated.

We also offer this ring in 10 other styles.

It has long been worn as a symbol of purity of character and wisdom and it was believed it would help concentration.

Every piece we create is entirely hand made to order in our workshop in Oslo, Norway. We do not have any ready to ship products and only begin working on a piece once your order comes through. When you purchase a ring, a pendant, or any other piece from us it will always slightly differ from the one photographed. This is a natural part of the process of hand making and it adds character and uniqueness to your jewelry.

Since the very beginning of Maru Jewelry we have tried maintaining a minimal and organic feel in our designs and continue to draw inspiration from all around us. Our designs are inspired in the beautiful diversity of natural landscapes, the abundance of shapes, textures and colors found in the vast wilderness of Norway. Some of our pieces are particularly rough, emulating the resilience of the flora that manage to survive the harsh Norwegian winters. These pieces tend to be weighty and oxidized, are typically cast in sand in a centuries-old technique, and are made to feel and look like ancient treasures.

We take pride in our production process, featuring only ethically-sourced stones purchased from certified distributors, and using the most natural materials available on the market. We substitute all animal-derived products typically used in jewelry making such as beeswax, leather hammers and aprons, with vegan alternatives, and we try to further minimize our impact on the environment by only using renewable energy to power our tools.

Please contact us for any custom requests or enquiries, as we all always happy to assist our customers and to collaborate.
