BURSTING BUBBLES. Ring.
LISTING IS FOR ONE RING
5mm wide (from finger to outer edge). 10mm tall (from base of ring to top). Roughly 20g.
Sterling Silver.
These rings were made as an addition to the ‘Make Jewellery Not War’ collection as a potential little talking point. The idea being to ‘burst’ some little knowledge bubbles, you learn something new, or enlighten someone else.
To showcase this, the three rings are three freeze-frames of a bubble popping.
STAGE ONE//Minimal Texture (Intact Bubble)
STAGE TWO//Light Texture (Bubble just popping)
STAGE THREE//Deep Texture (Bubble matter fully separating)
These rings are hallmarked.
If the size/finish you’d like is not in stock, please get in touch and I can make one made to order.

RING SIZING
When ordering rings it is the customers responsibility to ensure that they have ordered the correct size. For further advice on sizing, please contact me directly and I will be happy to assist.
*This may add time to the originally quoted processing and making time, as I am unable to start the ring until the sizer is posted back. All gauges and sizers vary slightly in size so the most accurate thing for me to do (if you’re unable to visit the workshop) is to take measurements from the exact sizer you used.*
Ring sizes fluctuate with temperature; make sure you don’t measure when you’re too cold (hands will shrink slightly) or too hot (hands will swell slightly).
If you like the look of this piece and want something similar but specially made, please get in contact via emily@the-metalsmith.co.uk , Instagram, Facebook or the contact form you can find by clicking here.
These textured rings will be packaged up in the Metalsmith packaging pictured above.
I am a UK based maker. Postage to the UK is free; it should take 2-3 days, unless it’s a made to order piece.
TAKE CARE
-Avoid wearing whilst hand washing; soap, water and continuous movement will result in a much shinier piece. It may also cause contact dermatitis to your finger if soap gets caught under the ring.
-Wearing silver will keep tarnish at bay. The oils in your skin keep it ‘healthy’.
-To clean, warm water and fairy liquid do the job well. Be gentle as you want to preserve the finish.
-If you’re finding the finish has changed a lot and want to restore it, please get in contact and I can sort this out for you.
