Open Gemstone Sterling Silver Round Engraved Ring

▎When objects are lost, subjects are found. The title 〈WHITE DAYS〉 is inspired by Andrei Tarkovsky's film notes for "Mirror." This collection explores the subtle connection between absence and presence through gem facets and their negative spaces. The incised facets resemble a void left by something lost, yet as light shifts, they create an optical illusion of gemstones, flickering like fragmented memories that subtly resonate. This ring is available in both square and round designs, finished with a bright polish for a mosaic-like shimmering effect. Sterling silver may gently yellow over time, imbuing the ring with a unique personal touch. This oxidation can be easily removed with a polishing cloth, restoring the silver to its original luster.

This is a natural process that can sometimes enhance an object's unique texture, imparting a sense of imperfect, ephemeral age. Others may prefer the original shine of silver. Plating is not a permanent finish and will wear off over time depending on usage. However, cleaning silver jewelry at home is not difficult. The simplest and most effective method is to use a polishing cloth, which contains chemicals that quickly remove oxidation, while the non-woven fabric can wipe away other dirt. For intricate details or groove areas, a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) can be used with warm water and a non-abrasive neutral detergent (do not use toothpaste). Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry completely. Caution: Household chemicals, sweat, rubber, chlorinated water, and any substances containing sulfur (e.g., mayonnaise, eggs, mustard, onions, latex, wool) can accelerate silver oxidation or cause minor corrosion on other metals. Lotions, hairspray, cosmetics, and perfumes may also speed up the metal's oxidation process or damage the surface. Additionally, soil and many household cleaners contain abrasive materials that can scratch metal surfaces. Therefore, we recommend wearing gloves or removing your jewelry when doing housework.
