the sea witch. shell skeleton ring.

based on the sea witch from hans christian anderson's 'the little mermaid', this ring features a manipulated shell skeleton, cast from a slice of a real shell. retaining all the details of the original, its odd shape stands high off the finger, simulating a kind of dark, organic weapon. symbolizing a transformation, much as the little mermaid is granted a change of form, this ring suggests the transformation of the shell, paired down to show its bone structure its inner landscape. cast in sterling silver & oxidized to achieve my favorite shade of gloomy grey, the ring stands a little over and inch off the finger. this piece is handmade just for you ! please allow 3-4 weeks for shipment. *** please send along your correct ring size at time of purchase in notes to seller. *** the sea witch series was made in thematic collaboration with clothing designer OVATE's newest line. www.ovate.etsy.com please take a peek at my policy profile here:
