FC-R206

A single continuous line traces brow, nose and lips down the length of the finger — a face reduced to its planes, cast in silver-toned metal that catches soft, uneven light on every raised surface.

  • Material: Pewter zinc alloy, lead- and nickel-free
  • Color: Silver
  • Finish: Brushed metal
  • Origin: Türkiye
  • Plate: 1.625 in
  • Band: Open, adjustable

The profile sits vertically along the finger rather than across it, longer than a conventional ring plate and easy to read at any angle. The open band flexes by hand, so the fit is forgiving and the piece slips on and off without sizing.

Details
  • Adjustable open band
  • Sculptural face-profile silhouette
  • Brushed-metal finish
  • Lead- and nickel-free alloy

Each ring is cast and hand-finished, so small differences in surface texture and shading between pieces are part of the process.

The Story

The ring belongs to a small tradition of jewelry made as wearable sculpture: a face reduced to a few essential planes and one continuous silhouette line. Worn on the hand, it reads almost like a small relief carving turned into an accessory.

It is cast in Türkiye, where small-metals casting and hand-finishing is steady, everyday work. Molten pewter zinc alloy is poured into a mold taken from a sculpted master; once cooled, each piece is filed, smoothed and buffed by hand to bring up the contrast between the raised profile and the recessed ground behind it.

The abstraction is the point — no fixed symbol, no tradition to decode. It is a study in how little detail is needed for a face to register.

Craft & Care
  • Technique: Cast pewter alloy, hand-finished

Wipe with a soft dry cloth after wear, and keep it away from moisture, perfume and lotion so the finish stays even.

Questions

Will this ring fit my finger?

The band is open and adjustable, so you can gently squeeze or widen it by hand to fit most finger sizes.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

The alloy is lead- and nickel-free, which makes it a safer choice than nickel-based casting alloys for anyone with metal sensitivities.

How do I keep the finish looking good?

Wipe it with a soft dry cloth after wear, and keep it away from moisture, perfume and lotion, all of which can dull the metal over time.

Is the face a symbol?

No. It is a sculptural abstraction — a study in silhouette rather than a motif tied to a specific tradition.
