Dainty Turquoise Hand-Forged Sterling Silver Ring

This one-of-a-kind ring features a round genuine turquoise cabochon set in hand-forged sterling silver, built in our Adirondack jewelry studio using traditional silversmithing tools. A scalloped bezel frames the turquoise with subtle detail, while the single sterling silver shank is worked with intentional hammer marks that create texture and small facets across the surface. Minimal in scale and grounded in traditional metalwork, this ring keeps the natural turquoise firmly at the center of the design.

Form & Proportion

The round turquoise creates a classic focal point with a daintier presence on the hand. A single sterling silver shank keeps the profile clean and balanced, while the hammered surface introduces texture without adding unnecessary weight. As light moves across the ring, the small facets created through the hammer work bring subtle variation to the silver.

Materials & Method

Forged from solid sterling silver, the ring is shaped and refined entirely at the bench. The scalloped bezel is formed around the genuine turquoise cabochon, adding definition to the setting while complementing the stone's rounded shape. Hammer marks are worked directly into the shank, leaving visible evidence of the tools and handwork used to build the piece.
