Sea Slug Ring – Handmade Sterling Silver 925 – Iolite, Peridot or Garnet

A sterling silver gemstone ring hand carved in wax and cast using the traditional lost wax technique. Inspired by marine life and the quiet mystery of underwater forms, the Sea Slug Ring explores fluid movement, asymmetry, and organic texture through a contemporary design language shaped by nature.

Set at the centre is a 3 mm cabochon gemstone, available in iolite, peridot, or garnet. Each stone brings its own character to the flowing silver form — from the deep violet-blue of iolite to the vivid green of peridot and the rich warmth of garnet. Soft contours and carved textures echo forms shaped by tides, erosion, and natural growth beneath the sea.

Designed as a piece to wear daily and keep for years, it balances quiet detail with a confident presence — jewellery intended to feel personal rather than decorative.

Concept

Part of an ongoing exploration of marine life and transformation, the Sea Slug Ring investigates how natural forms can be translated into precious metal. Influenced by movement beneath the sea, the design balances softness and structure, creating a form that feels both ancient and contemporary.

Maker’s Note

“For those drawn to the textures, movement, and quiet mystery of the sea, I wanted to create a ring that felt like something discovered rather than designed. The Sea Slug became a symbol of transformation and resilience. Each stone is set individually, and each piece leaves my studio with its own character.”
