A quiet story of change, told around a finger. A rose blooms at the center in warm rose gold, its petals satin-brushed to a soft glow, and a butterfly has just alighted on the bloom — polished sterling silver, every vein of its wings engraved by hand. Twining silver vines form the shoulders of the band, hand-veined leaves on either side, two rose-gold buds still waiting to open and small gilded berries caught along the stems.
From The Otherworld series — Duskgild's light register. The rose gold is a finish and the silver underneath is real: every Metamorphosis is cast in solid 925 sterling silver, then the bloom, buds and berries are gilded in rose gold against the polished silver. No stones anywhere — the whole ring is sculpture. Made in your size after you order, for the one starting again: a graduation, a new city, a fresh chapter.

Why you can trust it
- Solid 925 sterling silver. Stamped 925 — the real metal, not a coating.
- Any detail of this piece can change. The stone, its colour and cut, the metal finish, the size, the engraving, the proportions — because it is cast after you order, nothing here is fixed. Ask for the changes you want before you buy. Change enough and it stops being this design and becomes yours, at no extra cost beyond what the new piece takes to make.
- All metal, no fillers. Solid silver throughout — this piece is set with no stones.
- Gold is a finish over real silver. The gold or rose-gold is plating over the sterling — never a hidden karat claim, never plated brass.
- We tell you how it ages. The gold is plating over solid sterling, only microns thick, and worn every day it will thin where it rubs. The 925 underneath is solid.
- Made to order, and protected. Free US shipping, thirty-day returns, and Etsy buyer protection on every order.
- Wearing it on Halloween? Order by October 5 — it is cast after you order, so that is the last day the making and the post office both fit. Intricate casts take longer; ask us first.
