What is Argentium Silver
Argentium Silver is essentially a modern, upgraded version of sterling silver, which was “invented” in the 1300s by King Edward the first. Although the history behind this alloy is rich and fascinating, in my experience sterling silver leaves something to be desired in terms of appearance and durability. More info on the properties of Argentium Silver here.
Will your rings turn my finger green?
No they won’t. This occurs when rings are made of low quality materials and plated to look like silver. Copper, for example, will produce the green finger effect. Argentium silver is the highest quality silver alloy available, so it won’t have this effect.
Sustainable Metal Sourcing:
I use Argentium silver, a 100% sustainably sourced and recycled metal produced by the Argentium Company, ensuring ethical and environmentally friendly practices.
Certified Suppliers:
Palloys, the only Australian casting company certified by LBMA, OECD, and World Gold Council, supplies metals that comply with strict ethical standards, including the RJC certification for responsible jewelry practices.
Australian Labor and Manufacturing:
I use exclusively Australian labor and manufacturing for all aspects of production, maintaining slavery-free supply chains and supporting the local economy, with the exception of FSC-certified packaging from Denmark.

I offer change of mind returns for store credit. If your piece has any quirks you think shouldn’t be there, let me know and send me a some photos. If it looks like a workmanship problem I’ll issue an immediate full refund or replacement upon return postage.
Bought the wrong size? The course of action depends on whether the ring is too small or too large. If it’s too small, just send it back and I’ll size it up for free. If it’s too large, I’ll have to charge you a $60 resizing fee, since I’ll need to cut the ring open, remove metal, and solder it back together. This is fairly time consuming, hence the fee.

Halloween Exclusive. Sold from the 31st of October til the 13th of November.
The inevitable grasp of mortality – a visceral reminder of the finite nature of life – a profound reverence for the cycle of life and death.
Eternal Grasp is a faceted, three-dimensional octagonal signet ring. The many faces interact and play with light in various ways. Down the shoulders of the piece, a triangulated texture results in light being bent into various black and white triangles.
On the face of the piece a hand is engraved grasping a human skull. a metaphor for the inescapable reach of death and the reaper’s grip. The hand serves as a constant reminder of the impending conclusion to life’s narrative, urging us to seize the fleeting moments that define us.
Around the back of the shank “ETERNAL GRASP” is engraved, with the letter L serving as a candle. The candle is an additional metaphor for the shortness of life, the wick burning away ’til nothing is left.
On a deeper level, the subject matter dares us to confront the unknown at the end of life. It challenges us to ponder mortality, not as a grim finale, but as a transformative passage. In acknowledging the Reaper’s grasp, we find the urgency to live with purpose.
Onyx Edition – Only 9 stones available.
The cut natural onyx in this special version of ‘Eternal Grasp’ isn’t just an aesthetic addition; it serves as a continuation of the themes of the piece. Much like how Onyx is believed to absorb and transmute negative energy, the presence of onyx in this piece symbolizes the transformative power of facing our own mortality. It’s a daily reminder that the fear or dread we may feel when contemplating life’s finite nature can be converted into a potent force for positive action. It urges you to seize the moment, make every second count, and sculpt a life story worth telling.
When your path is one of meaning, a piece like this serves as both a warning and a guide. It whispers to the wearer: live with intention, for the grasp of eternity waits for no one.
This Halloween exclusive is available for just two weeks, making it a fleeting symbol much like the moments it urges you to cherish.
Eternal Grasp is forged from 940 Argentium Silver using techniques dating back over 6,000 years. Each piece is made to order and handcrafted by me. The ring comes with a certificate of authenticity in a wax-sealed envelope so you know it’s the real deal.
