The story of Ripple

The River

Ripple marks are the small waves shallow water leaves in sand. A slim band carries a fine, rounded texture all the way round.

When shallow water moves over loose sand, it leaves small, regular ridges. Some of those ripple marks hardened as the sand turned to stone, and they can still be read in sandstone millions of years later. Ripple is a slim band with a fine, rounded nugget texture all the way round and a smooth inside: a ripple of gold, to wear on its own or with other rings.

Description
  • A slim band carries a fine, rounded nugget texture across its outer surface. The inside stays smooth and polished.
  • Part of The River: textured all the way round the band. See the collection

The River

The River nugget collection: rings in solid 14K gold or sterling silver, most of them bands, textured all the way round like gold-bearing gravel lining a riverbed. Placer gold is gold the river has already freed from the rock and dropped in its gravel.
