“Beauty is not about being perfect. It's about being beautifully different.”
As a neurodivergent, I have always stood out. In several professions I tried to blend in, feeling often like I could not be myself fully - and the mask was never good enough anyway, people always knew. The past few years, I have moved more and more towards authenticity.
Like no leaf is exactly the same, variety makes the world interesting. People that stand out, are often asked to conform their behaviour to blend in. I find people most interesting when they find and show their authenticity, and feel comfortable in doing so. This I think, is an important life lesson.
Nature moves through its cycles. Autumn reminds us of the end of a cycle, old leaves fall down and in winter we might reflect on the past (year) and coming year, making decisions and taking steps in a new direction (maybe!). In spring there are new leaves forming on the trees, sometimes with flowers, going through a cycle until autumn winds it down again (at least, with perennial trees!)
Then spring arrives, bringing fresh leaves, blossoms and new beginnings. Life is a continuous cycle of letting go, growing, changing and becoming. This ring was inspired by these natural cycles.
It was made in 925 Sterling silver, with a contrasting matte/shiny finish in the leaves. The leaves slightly overlap with each other...the final design will be according to your own fit (it might look a little different once adjusted to your own finger). The width of the shank of ring is tapers from approximately 4mm to 3.5 mm, the width is approx. 1,6 mm.
(Re)sizing the ring
The ring is slightly adjustable between German size 54-58, UK size N-Q/R and US size 7-8, allowing you to make small changes to its fit when needed. Our fingers naturally change over time, so this flexibility can be useful. However, don’t change this too often (like every week for a different finger) as this will weaken the metal.
The ring weighs just under 7 grams and is marked 925.
Interested but in the USA? It will depend on your location what the actual shipping costs are, but unfortunately they are pretty high and adress specific at the moment which is why I have disabled shipping to the US for now. You can make an inquiry. For the EU, I still need to see how to implement the new PPWR with "representatives" in each country. Private sellers apparently aren't worried about this or don't need to. It would be helpful to know who is interested.
