This ring is for the cryptid crazed mothman weirdos! Take a little destruction everywhere you go with this strange and unexplained ware.
This ring displays mothman spread eagle on a small circle plate. It comes in a package that is a party to open and is the perfect gift for your nerdy comrades too. It is available in jeweler's brass or sterling silver.
PLEASE NOTE: This ring is photographed under ideal lighting to best show definition with the design but it does not have a patina. The ring you will receive also does not have a patina unless otherwise requested in your order notes (sterling option only).
This ring is simple but unique and stacks well because of its small size. The chaos begins as a sheet of brass or sterling that is cut into a circular disc in my studio. Next the design is added and the band is sized, shaped and soldered. Finally this ring gets a polish and seal before it heads out.
Jeweler's brass is a quality alternative to the much more expensive gold that it imitates. You can also upgrade your ring to sterling silver for a small charge. This piece is polished up to a shiny finish before you receive it but over time tarnishing will occur. A quick wipe with a polishing pad is all you need to bring life back to your ware. You can add a polishing pad to your order under the "Add-On" Tab.
Please allow up to 3 weeks for your ring to be created just for you.

Your jewelry is finished with a water proof sealant before it ships. Over time the sealant may wear off and need additional polishing/resealing. Some ways to keep your jewelry looking sparkly and new include:
-Do not store your jewelry in a humid area such as a bathroom
-If you live in a humid climate consider storing your jewelry in an enclosed case, bag, or box to preserve the shine
-Avoid water, hand sanitizer, and chemicals as much as possible
-You can polish your jewelry easily with a polishing pad (available as an add-on) to make it look new again or if you are in a bind ketchup is commonly used. Just submerge your jewelry and buff off.
-A common home remedy to lacquer jewelry is clear nail polish
-You can always contact me
For sizing your fingers I definitely recommend consulting a local jeweler or purchasing a cheap ring sizer online. If you are unable to size your fingers as mentioned here are some other considerations:
The most common sizes I sell are
6 (slightly smaller than average)
7 (average)
8 (slightly larger than average)
If your fingers are very thin your size may run from 4-5
If your fingers are larger you may consider a 9-10
For men's sizing you can typically add two sizes.
You can also cut off the sticky part of a post-it note and wrap around your finger, marking where the ends meet. Measuring the post-it note in mm and converting (or messaging me) should give you a pretty accurate size.
Standard packaging for rings include a plastic capsule filled with styrofoam confetti in a hand-printed bubble mailer.
Standard packaging for necklaces include a hand stamped card-stock tag in a clear plastic protective sleeve that is shipped in a hand-printed bubble mailer.
Also available upon request (in your order notes) are hand stamped gift boxes.
For bridal parties or events feel free to message me about custom packaging for your order.
There are many factors that affect metal such as hormones, sodium levels, and personal allergies. For that reason I can not confidently say that the brass will not turn your finger green. With that being said, it is more common that people have no reaction for the following reasons.
Brass does contain a small amount of nickel (which turns your fingers green). While I am heating the metal a lot of the nickel comes to the surface and is removed in the polishing phase. Additionally your jewelry is sealed with a water-proof wax that serves as a barrier from your skin and protects the shine of your piece.
If you are concerned about an allergy to brass you may consider sterling silver which very rarely causes a reaction.

Mothman forever! Excellent quality. After my first wear, I did get some green discoloration on my finger- BUT- with the polishing pad I purchased from this store, I cleaned up the ring and have not had that problem since!! Has become an everyday wear for me.

It's so cute in person! I knew I'd love it regardless, but it's just so adorable and dainty. It's a great detail piece. It does seem to be a little bit bigger than expected on me, but I can wear it on my middle finger still.

By far the most amazing seller I’ve ever shopped with on Etsy! Such a sweet soul! She let me change my shipping address, and when my order took the full shipping time, she sent several thank you notes, apologizing ❤️ of course I didn’t mind! I also was gifted AN EXTRA RING?! 😭❤️ and several sheets of ADORABLE stickers! Sellers like these are my favorite! I’ll definitely be a returning customer!

I will be wearing this every day for the foreseeable future. It is the absolute cutest thing, and the level of detail in this handmade item is amazing!! I loved the super fun packaging it came in as well.❣️ Also seller was super helpful when my package was marked as delivered but I was unable to locate it & quickly did everything she could to help resolve it. (Turns out my own apt complex front office had misplaced the package, but they found it with the help of seller’s detailed description of the packaging she used!!)
