There is a certain amount of peace in a well made and designed object. You might think you could buy this out of a catalog, but it simply does not exist. There is always something missing from the commercially available design. What we like about this is the graceful taper and the transition between forms. It does not stick up, does not catch on anything, and is right where it should be. The shank is strong enough for decades of daily wear. It can be worn flush against a band with no gap between the bands. We make this ring in a variety of materials. It is a winner.
