Size 7 | Companion Ring | #2

When our beloved Sassafras left us, I knew I wanted to honor her through jewelry and help others like her.  

She spent endless hours with me in the studio over the years, watched many of your rings, necklaces, and earrings be made from start to finish. Snoozing in the sunshine, determined not to be more than five feet away from me. 

She came to us late in her life, already a senior. And it was an honor to love on her for the last years of her life. 

And so now that the pain has eased and her absence less overwhelming, twenty rings made in her honor, one for every year she spent on this earth snuggling, napping, and begging for vegan butter.

These rings are made with rutilated quartz, beautiful clear gemstones with hair-like rutiles of various hues floating through the stones. 

Some are black and coarse like whiskers, others soft and wispy, like kitten fluff. 

And on either side of the stones are little wobbly whisker engravings in the rectangle band. 

There are windows to the backs of the stone so you can hold the ring up to the light and see all the rutiles, like the eternal bits of cat and dog hair that is always impossible to get rid of! 

The size is as read on the mandrel. Since the stone sits right atop the finger they are quite stable.
