Gothic Garnet Ring in Sterling Silver
- 🦇🩸PREORDER - Please allow up to 1-2 weeks 🩸
This captivating gothic garnet ring is an ornate sterling silver cigar band style ring featuring a gothic flourish centerpiece and a 3mm faceted garnet. It is crafted entirely in solid sterling silver and has a hand textured ring band. The center piece is die-pressed in studio by hand from a vintage die.
Vampires have had centuries to hone their personal style, and always have the most beautiful rings - the most important one being their day walker ring, of course. I'd like to think an old world vampire would rock this style.
🩸If you like this style and want to make a matching set, I have similar designs:
- Check out the garnet statement necklace here

Made with (vampire) love in my studio in Fort Collins, Colorado.

GARNET
Garnets are one of the oldest known gemstones. It was believed that garnets could shield the wearer from harm and warriors would wear garnets into battle as protective talismans. Garnets were also traditionally associated with love, blood, and one's life force - it is a stone perfect for a vampire!
BLACK ONYX
Black onyx has been used as a talisman of protection and focus by many cultures for centuries. Onyx is named for the Greek word onux for "fingernail" or "claw" and is the birthstone of Leos. Some believe onyx can absorb negative energy to protect the wearer from ill intentions. According to folklore, Cleopatra would wear black onyx jewelry to alert her to nearby danger. It is also believed that onyx holds memories, and can assist the wearer by providing focus and stamina to navigate difficult times or decisions.

I do NOT accept returns for:
- Damage incurred with wear
- Improper jewelry care (see my Jewelry Care page for proper care instructions)
To keep your silver jewelry looking like new, take that extra second to remove it before cleaning, bathing, swimming, or any activity that would cause excess wear and tear. Avoid exposing your jewelry to perfumes, lotions, soaps and other liquids, as well as extreme heat.
If your jewelry becomes dirty, clean with a soft cloth or soft tooth brush and a mild soap if necessary (I use Dawn), or polish with a silver polishing cloth.
Please note that polishing cloths are infused with an abrasive and will remove intentional patina along with the unwanted tarnish, so take
care not to accidentally polish off the patina!
Finally, as a best practice, store your jewelry in a cool, dry place with your complimentary anti-tarnish tab.
