Tidemark Ring | Textured Wide Silver Band Ring

Material & Craft
Hand-carved in wax and cast in 999 fine silver. The face carries two shell forms — one convex, one concave — with scattered granules pressed between them. Every ridge and arc starts as a blade mark in wax; casting locks all of it in solid silver at once. 999 fine silver is softer and warmer than sterling, with a quiet sheen that shifts as patina develops over time. At 9g, this wide silver band ring carries real weight — closer to a chunky silver ring than a thin stacking band.

Wearing & Styling
The concave shell holds shadow; the convex one catches light. Together on the same face, the two forms shift depending on the angle — the surface never reads the same way twice. The band sits slightly concave on the inside, so this wide silver band ring follows the finger without spinning. Best on the index or middle finger where the width has room to sit flat. Wear it alone — the surface already has enough going on.

About This Piece
The designer’s phrase for this ring: a shell’s self-sculpting, two sides of one life. Not a decorative reference to the sea — a way of thinking about form that opens and closes at the same time, growth that doesn’t pick a direction. The shell isn’t the subject of the ring. It’s the logic underneath it. A wide silver band ring where the concept came first and the shape followed.
