The buckle motif in fine jewelry is a design decision that rewards the wearer who looks closely - what reads at first as a simple band reveals itself as a trompe l'oeil buckle, the loop and tongue rendered in metal at ring proportions. At 3/16" wide in sterling silver, this ring sits in the space between a delicate band and a statement ring - present enough to notice, contained enough to stack with other rings without competing. The sterling silver surface is polished and clean, letting the buckle silhouette carry the design without additional ornament. Available in sizes 5-12, making this one of the more inclusive sizing ranges in fine jewelry rings. The buckle carries associations of utility converted to beauty, of purposeful design applied to decorative objects - a ring that rewards the wearer's knowledge of its own design. Contemporary in its clean, geometric simplicity.
