Handmade Ring with Hammered Silver Wire on a cylindrical base (R0006)

The ring is made in 2 phases; first we made the bobbin-shape anticlastic base, which is crafted from a single silver sheet, 1mm thich and 12 mm wide, that is soldered invisibly, and afterwards we applied the silver wire which was hammered and twisted and then applied in 6 loops around the silver base. Our products are hand crafted in 95-98% Silver by Thai Karen hill-tribe artisans. The Karen are a group of ethnic peoples who reside primarily in southern and southeastern Burma and in northern and north-eastern Thailand. Thai and Burmese hill tribes can be traced back to the 12th century when they are said to have originated from Tibet. With a higher silver content than sterling silver, Karen silver has a weight, bright satin color and feel, all of its own. Every piece is handmade and individual. We can make this ring and have it shipped in about 2-3 weeks after ordering. We usually make sizes 5-9.5, for bigger sizes please let us know before ordering. The product comes with traditional Thai packaging and includes tracking number for safer shipping. Width 12 mm at the widest point Weight: 3.75 g
