Hand-Forged Switchback Argentium Silver Adjustable Ring

This hand-forged argentium silver ring is built in our Adirondack jewelry studio, shaped around the shifting rhythm of a switchback path. Alternating surfaces of oxidized, dusted texture and smooth, polished silver move back and forth across the form, with hammered argentium discs following the line. This is one-of-a-kind silver jewelry, guided by terrain and executed through disciplined bench work.

Form & Wearability

The ring follows a flowing, directional path across the finger, creating movement while maintaining balance and control. Hammered discs are placed along the form, reinforcing the sense of progression and structure.

Designed as an adjustable piece, it offers flexibility in fit while holding its shape. Moderate in scale, it carries presence without excess, making it suitable for everyday wear.

Material & Studio Practice

Forged from argentium silver, this piece integrates multiple surface treatments—dusted and oxidized textures alongside smooth, polished planes. Each section is developed through hands-on metalwork, allowing contrast to emerge through process rather than decoration.

Hammered discs are individually formed and set into the design, following the path of the ring. The result is artisan sterling silver work grounded in traditional tools, controlled technique, and intentional composition.
