This parallel bar ring with an opening is completely handmade in sterling silver, soldered together by me by hand in my studio. The minimalist look of this silver ring will accent well alone or with rings on other fingers. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Each ring is made custom upon order using a 16 gauge sterling silver ring band and two thin square wire sterling silver bars soldered together. Though it's delicate, it's strong and will bring lasting beauty. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Shipping and processing speeds differ with each item I offer in my shop. Processing speeds are the time it takes me to create your own unique piece. Shipping speeds begin at the end of the processing speeds. Please check the listing details for more information on this item! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Because my designs are very minimalistic, I don't add the .925 mark to my sterling silver pieces, but I do guarantee the quality and silver content.
