ID Ring

Story

Hand-forged ring that gets better with age

Shaped a little like those old-school ID bracelets but with a whole lot more character, Studebaker Metals’ ID Ring is forged by hand using traditional metalsmithing techniques for a distinctly hammered look. The unpolished work patina will continue to develop over time, making it more and more “you” with every wear.

Materials

• 100% Sterling Silver

Care

About Studebaker Metals

Educated as a metalsmith, trained as a jeweler, and experienced in architectural metalwork, founder Mike Studebaker strives to create work that draws from the traditions of smithing and the objects we interact with daily. Each of Studebaker’s works is completely handmade using traditional tools and techniques; most of the forms you see are created solely with a hammer and anvil. Many pieces are ‘finished like a tool’: minimally polished and left with a work patina to develop over time. All items are made in their Pittsburgh workshop and stamped with the Studebaker Maker’s Mark.
