Description
The Contemporary Bark textured ring features a bold bark-textured finish, created using the intricate reticulation process. This technique involves extreme heat so the metal’s surface approaches its melting point while the core remains cooler. The resulting expansion and contraction create a uniquely organic, rippled texture. Reticulation requires both skill and patience, making each piece truly one-of-a-kind.
The Contemporary Bark textured ring’s low-profile design ensures a secure fit and allows the engagement ring to sit flat against the finger. This makes it exceptionally comfortable for daily wear without catching or interfering with everyday activities.
Its elongated form adds a dramatic yet elegant edge, making a confident, contemporary statement that challenges traditional engagement ring aesthetics.
The photo shows that the ring can be paired with a matching bark-textured wedding band sold separately.
Each piece is stamped with the Guild Mark and Maker’s Mark, certifying authenticity through The Gold and Silversmithing Guild of Australia. The Guild is Australia’s only official hallmarking system, founded in 1988 by Michael Wilson and Tony Kean. Your piece is permanently recorded in the Guild’s Touchplate archive, ensuring its legacy and provenance.
