925 Sterling Silver Open Ring

An open ring is a quietly clever design. Rather than closing into a complete circle, the band stops short, which gives the ring a bit of give at the finger and turns the gap itself into the detail. It is a shape that suits people who want a piece of jewellery that looks considered without looking like it is trying very hard.

It is made from 925 sterling silver, the standard alloy for everyday silver jewellery, and it comes as a single piece rather than a set. The band measures 0.6 inches in actual width. It arrives in a matching box, which means it needs nothing adding before it is handed over, and makes it a straightforward answer for a birthday or a thank you.

The open shape means it wears well on more than one finger, so it is more forgiving than a closed band if you are buying for someone else. It sits comfortably alongside other silver pieces and stacks with plain bands if you like a fuller hand. As with all sterling silver, it asks for a little thought about when you wear it: the maker asks that you avoid wearing it during exercise, because sweat reacts with the metal over time and dulls the finish. Keeping it in the box it arrives in between wears is the simplest way to keep it looking right.
