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.

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.

This piece is for the optimistic trailblazer, inherently hopeful and always looking toward the future; for someone always pushing boldly ahead into uncharted territory.
Helios is an incredible platform signet produced in collaboration with Jed Nicholls, featuring the sun and oriental style clouds. Helios displays secondary design elements on both sides of the face, similarly to Evanescence. “太陽” is engraved into the shoulders, with the meaning of “sun” in Japanese and is pronounced “Taiyō”. The name of the piece is engraved into the inside, as well as an Urban Sterling and silver hallmark. The ring is named after the Greek god of the Sun, who is also the god of sight and a guardian of oaths.
The design portrays the sun’s rays breaking through clouds, transforming an otherwise overcast and somber day into a radiant landscape. It’s a visual narrative of hope and rejuvenation. During those moments when life appears grey and discouraging, let this ring serve as a poignant reminder that the sun has the power to pierce through the clouds at any instant. Wear it as a constant emblem of unwavering hope.
Helios 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.
Expect your Helios to arrive within 1-2 weeks after placing your order, crafted in superior quality 940 Argentium Silver.

Excellent customer service and great quality product. I’ve bought three rings from Urban Sterling and they’re all fantastic. My older ones that I’ve had for a few years are still in perfect condition, proving the high quality. Highly recommend.
