Aspen Twig Ring - Dainty Montana Sapphire
A beautiful ring to last forever, made from sustainably harvested aspen twigs, cast in recycled 14 karat gold, and set with a stunning, ethically mined Montana sapphire measuring 4mm in diameter and weighing approx. 0.23 carats. If you'd prefer a larger centre stone for your solitaire, please check out the Persephone Aspen Solitaire! If you're interested in having this ring created with a different stone, please reach out! I'd love to discuss your ideas.
One morning in the fall, I walked the shores of Kitchigami (aka Lake Superior) with my pup; eyes peeled for fine aspen twigs with slender, tight buds. This is my favourite of those twigs, alchemized into this ring. The ecology of aspen makes it particularly symbolic as a representation of the commitment between two people who love each other. Aspens are well known for their ability to survive major disturbances by forming massive networks underground; sharing resources & supporting themselves through their root systems.

All North Star jewelry is handcrafted in my little workshop on the beautiful north shore of Lake Superior in northern Ontario, Canada.
My work is handmade using traditional goldsmithing, stone-setting, and hand-engraving techniques, with my own two hands and a lot of heart and soul. Each North Star order comes ready for gift-giving in beautiful, eco-friendly packaging. If you have any questions about this piece or my work in general, please don't hesitate to contact me.
