The Mighty Oak & Circle of Life
Oak tree ring – Recycled silver coins and fork
This is another new design I have been working on for a while. I wanted to create a ring for the collection which like the necklaces could be worn every day, feel special and become a permanent feature in your life. To do this I have made it different to the other oak leaf rings I create, making it a slim band but absolutely solid. The band is hand carved to give the exact same bark texture and feel as the ‘Tree of Life’ sculpture. The Oak leaf was cut from a silver sixpence and is a wee, unobtrusive 6 mm wide and 15 mm long.
Hidden on the branch is a lovely set semi-precious stone, you are welcome to specify a green emerald, purple amethyst, pink sapphire or no secret stone! Similarly you are also invited to request the branch set with Emerald, Ruby and Amethyst representing Nature, Heart and Spirit respectively. In this three stone option the precious gems are seated in 18ct gold settings.
Traditional jewellers hand tools allow me a close connection with each piece and to ensure your jewellery will be completely original and special to wear. I hope you like it as much as I do! the design means that this ring is both visually interesting yet super comfortable for continuous wear.

My wonderful husband had one of these made for me for our Silver Wedding Anniversary. It is absolutely stunning…
Fantastic service from HG himself, arrived really quickly-and it was a lovely surprise to also receive the coin that the leaf had been cut from, threaded onto a green cord!
