[QuShuiChen Handmade] Flowing Sand Water Gall Crystal Sterling Silver Woven Ring

Flowing Sand & Water Gall Crystal Ring, metal material is sterling silver wire, inner ring diameter is 17.6cm, converted to international size 13. Similar to the flowing sand and water gall crystal pendant recently added to the collection, this piece features a main stone with a playful contrast between small, mobile sand particles and a larger expanse of slow-moving sand. For a while, I was particularly drawn to this aesthetic and found myself collecting quite a few pieces with this design. Because they coexist in a somewhat elongated space, the movement of the small sand particles can sometimes be obstructed by the slow-flowing sand. In these moments, I enjoy gently rotating the piece to clear a path for the sand, a process I find quite delightful. If this piece finds its way to you, I encourage you to experience this interaction yourself. The design incorporates silver beads to accentuate the interplay of curves with varying textures. Given the substantial size of the main stone, the silver wire gracefully encircles its sides, offering a different vista from every angle while ensuring ample light can penetrate. The slightly adjusted orientation of the main stone not only allows the inclusions to shift and change with movement, an effect I've come to savor during wear, but also enhances the overall cohesive aesthetic, lending a touch of casual playfulness that truly embodies my interpretation of this central gem. ❖ Product photos are mostly taken in natural daylight. Dimensions are length x width (x thickness). Pinkoi often crops video lengths; the full version can be found by searching the brand name on IG for the corresponding post. ❖ Metalwork sterling silver jewelry pieces do not come with a chain by default. For styling, in addition to commercially available silver chains, we also recommend pairing sterling silver jewelry with oxidized/aged treatment with stainless steel chains for a harmonious color tone. ❖ During the metal wire weaving process, slight marks from clamping or cutting may occur due to hand pressure. These generally do not affect the wearing experience. ❖ "Artistic Copper Wire" indicates craft wire with plating and a protective layer. "Red Copper Wire" and "Brass Wire" indicate bare copper wire (no plating). Silver wire will be specified as 925 or 999 silver. ❖ Natural stones may inherently have characteristics such as cloudiness, internal patterns, mineral inclusions, or small flaws from drilling and polishing. ❖ Shipping defaults to simple packaging, including clean protective cushioning materials and a shipping bag, along with a sealed bag for convenient storage. 【Artistic Copper Wire Woven Jewelry】 ❖ Artistic copper wire is craft wire composed of pure copper wire, plating, and a protective layer. With normal use and care, its color can remain largely unchanged for several years. ❖ Due to the plating and protective layer on the surface, please avoid using silver polishing cloths and toothpaste for cleaning, as this will rapidly wear away the plating. ❖ After wearing, gently wipe off any moisture (especially sweat) with a soft cloth and store in the provided sealed bag. ❖ Please try to avoid wearing during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as exercise, and when visiting hot springs, as this can accelerate wire deterioration and potentially damage the natural stones. 【Unplated Copper Wire / Silver Wire Woven Jewelry / Sterling Silver Metalwork Jewelry】 ❖ Red copper wire, brass wire, and silver wire are all unplated materials. Natural oxidation is a normal phenomenon (they will gradually turn into a antique bronze/antique silver color). The color change and oxidation speed will vary with wear and individual body chemistry, which is also part of the unique character of bare copper wire jewelry. In terms of oxidation speed, red copper wire tends to oxidize more quickly (possibly turning antique red copper in a few days to weeks), while brass and silver oxidize more slowly. ❖ Wire with an oxidized (aged) finish will have a more stable color tone compared to unoxidized wire, but polished areas will still naturally oxidize over time. ❖ If you wish to clean oxidized areas, you can generally use a silver polishing cloth or gently scrub with toothpaste, then dry with a cloth or a cool setting on a hairdryer. ❖ After wearing, wipe off any moisture with a soft cloth and store in the provided sealed bag. ❖ Please try to avoid wearing during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as exercise, and when visiting hot springs, as this can accelerate wire oxidation and potentially damage the natural stones. ❖ Jewelry made with unplated wire can be sent back for re-polishing at a later time (only return shipping fees will apply). 【Natural Stones】 ❖ Natural gemstones may inherently have cloudiness, internal patterns, mineral inclusions, or dark spots. There may also be minor flaws from drilling or polishing during processing. ❖ The natural stones used in our pieces are mostly semi-precious stones. Some types of stones may have lower hardness (this will be clearly indicated). Please try to avoid contact with natural stones when polishing the metal components of your jewelry with items like silver polishing cloths or toothpaste, which have abrasive properties. ❖ Please try to avoid wearing during activities that cause heavy sweating, such as exercise, and when visiting hot springs, as this may damage the natural stones.
