ABOUT THE ART
There are pine trees that can ONLY rejuvenate after the devastation of wildfire. Their pinecones are sealed with a thick resin & can only open to release their seeds when exposed to intense heat via wildfires.
I love these as a metaphor. When we experience trials in life, seasons of devastation & loss, those that burn us to the ground & reduce us to ash, our strength increases fourfold. These inevitable “wildfires” force us to muster up all of our grit, strength & tenacity to endure. And with that strength, we persevere & emerge anew. Forever
These statement rings pay tribute to this transformation. They feature brilliant slices of Fire Opal, set upon sterling twig bands. Each boasts a real, hefty pinecone cast in silver. Beautiful duality. Made to be powerful reminders of your tenacity through trial.
*Ring sizes from left to right: 5.5, 5.25, 6.25, 6.5.

A NOTE ON WEAR
I have chosen high quality materials to create a piece of artful jewelry that will last a lifetime. Although crafted with the adventurous spirit in mind, please take care while wearing my pieces as natural stones can be delicate. To prolong the life of your piece, I suggest you remove it while swimming, hiking, rock climbing, cliff jumping, skydiving or whatever other crazy and rigorous adventure you find yourself on!
