The Koi fish is one of the most ubiquitous symbols of fortune and perseverance during adversity. A Koi fish swimming signifies a struggle or fighting against opposition, and is a powerful reminder to never give up. In ancient China these fish were known to attempt swimming upstream in the yellow river, but only a few of them were able to swim past a point called the Dragon’s Gate. Legend has it that the ones who succeeded were rewarded by being turned into dragons.
My Koi fish ring is hand-made from gleaming 940 Argentium silver using techniques dating back to over 6,000 years ago (more info here). The Koi is attached to the band with quite a small surface area, so the fish appears to be swimming up the finger. Each piece is made to order and hand finished by me. Shipping times may vary due to demand. Expect to wait about a week 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 who you’d like me to address the certificate (if its a gift).
Expect your Koi ring to arrive within 1-2 weeks after placing your order, crafted in superior quality 940 Argentium Silver.
