Black Cherry Wood

Our home sits on what used to be an orchard, and a few old trees still exist near us. The black cherry wood used in this ring comes from a 35+ foot tall black cherry tree that came down in our backyard. It was cut it in lengths of about 6 feet, sealed the ends with wax, and let it cure for over a year. Afterward, we split the logs into quarters and let them dry in our shed. We have had a lot of good use from that old cherry tree and now its wood makes its way into these rings.

Black cherry provides an excellent contrast in color to the smoky gray whiskey barrel wood, which is why we have decided to use it in this design.

Natural Maple Wood Liner

Our historic maple comes from Asheville North Carolina. The board was taken from a barn built in the late 1800 s and was likely used to store tobacco, as was so common in the area.

Offset Sterling Silver Inlay

The sterling silver inlay adds an extra touch of sophistication to this ring. 

Each Ring is Handcrafted in North Carolina

I am proud to craft each ring by hand in Charlotte, North Carolina. It is my honor to play a small role in the new Made in USA movement that is taking place across the nation and to do so by sharing part in our American heritage.
