Description
This wooden ring has a 1mm offset lapis lazuli inlay & a 3mm African Blackwood inlay. African Blackwood is of the Dalbergia genus & thus considered a "true rosewood". Typically used for instrument making, it is prized for its tonal qualities, hardness, & of course its deep, black color. The dark brown/greyish grain can be seen in bright light, but the overall impression any distance is jet black. Lapis lazuli is a semiprecious gemstone prized for its deep blue color. You may, however, choose any wood you see in the shop for the 3mm inlay. Just include your choice along with your size in the "message to seller" section at checkout. Because the stripe of wood is so narrow, only the highest quality, most figured material is selected. The titanium liner is 6al-4v grade 5 titanium, preferred among jewelers. Titanium ring sizes run from 4 to 16 including quarter sizes. I highly recommend going to a jewelry counter to determine your size, even if you already know your size. "Do it yourself" ring sizing methods (string, etc.) should absolutely not be trusted. Be sure to be measured using the width you plan to order". Please note, all of my rings are COMFORT FIT. NOTE ON WIDTH: This ring is available in one width only: .5mm Ti - 1mm stone - 2mm Ti - 3mm wood - .5mm Ti = 7mm Regardless of size.

I wish I could offer a more economical solution, but cheaper options are too risky. International customers are responsible for all fees associated with shipping to their respective countries.
