The Eye of Horus

About the Piece:

This piece was inspired by the enthralling symbolism of ancient Egypt. The Eye of Horus is an ancient Egyptian hieroglyph that represents protection, royal power, and good health. This elegant signet ring captures the rich history of the Eye of Horus in gleaming 935 Argentium Silver. With a low profile face and a tasteful material choice, this ring can fit in with any style. 

The Eye of Horus was crafted using the 6,000+ year old technique of lost wax casting, more information here. Each piece is made to order and hand finished by me. Shipping times may vary due to demand. Expect to wait about a week or two on average. Comes with an Urban Sterling certificate of authenticity in a wax sealed envelope. Please let me know in the comments section of the checkout to whom you’d like me to address the certificate (if its a gift).

Made to Order:

Do you really want a ring off some dusty shelf in a stock cupboard? I know I don’t. That’s why I ensure all Urban Sterling products are made to order, just for you. Here’s how I run things: when I see that you’ve just placed an order, I immediately notify my casting house in Sydney so they can get your ring started ASAP. Within a week the raw-cast will arrive at my studio, where I’ll start work on it. After I cut, sand, buff, emery, polish, and clean it by hand, it gets placed into a box with your order number in it. I pack the documentation for the piece into an envelope, sign the certificate of authenticity, and wax seal it shut. Then it goes from my studio straight to your home (or nearby post office knowing AusPost). My jewellery is made to reflect your personality and go with you everywhere, so it just wouldn’t feel right keeping it in a plastic bag in a dark cupboard.

Ethical Practices:

All US Co. rings are made from 100% sustainably sourced precious metals. I personally guarantee the Argentium silver I use does not cause, support or benefit unlawful conflict, or contribute to human rights abuses or breaches of international law. You can read more about Urban Sterling ethical practices here. As well as on the Argentium website here.

Sizing:

I produce rings using US sizing because it just makes more sense. Please make sure you have the correct size since it is very difficult to resize a ring like this due to the flat face, which can be warped during resizing. I’ve provided some sizing charts here for your convenience. Also note you can order using “Buy now, size later” and I’ll express post you a ring sizer free of charge! Usually this sizer will arrive the next business day. After you’ve found your perfect size, simply DM me on Instagram or send me an email (contact@urbansterling.co) and I’ll get it immediately into production.

Lifetime Warranty:

Every Urban Sterling ring is covered by my lifetime warranty guarantee. Your piece will be free from scratches, chips, tarnish, poor finishing, manufacturing faults and breaks, in other words it’ll be perfect. Note that some of my rings may have very slight distressing incorporated into the design, as is typical for handmade products. I personally make every ring by hand and check them thoroughly so it’s unlikely you’ll ever need this warranty, but it’s there for your peace of mind. Also! If you manage to scratch / chip the ring yourself, I offer a free restoration service in-house.

After your order is placed expect to wait around 1-2 weeks for your ring to arrive as these are all hand crafted and the process takes some time. The ring you receive will be polished 935 Argentium Silver.
