Turquoise and Wood Rings
Our Turquoise wedding bands or engagement rings come with inlays on either side of the turquoise. We have designed it this way to create something with balanced colors and textures. Most commonly, we use wood from whiskey barrels on one side and naturally shed antler on the other. All of our materials are recycled or reclaimed, and each piece is handmade with the utmost care to create something high-quality and unique.
Whiskey Barrel Wood
Whiskey barrels are usually made with American White Oak. This is a hardwood found in North America, and they have been known to live for over 450 years, reaching an impressive height. Although it is called white oak, it is usually a rich grey or brown with charred black lines. Barrels are also fire-roasted, which creates a stunning pattern often sought after by artists.

Deer naturally shed their antlers once a year. These marvelous formations of nature are used to attract mates and warn others of their prowess.

Ring Care
Although turquoise is a soft mineral, no special care is required for our wedding bands or engagement rings.

As a result, you can simply wash your turquoise ring with soapy water to keep it clean.
