Bell Pod Ring - Yellow Bronze
Elaborate, organic, and bold, the Bell Pod Ring resembles an ancient relic with its beautiful patina and textured carving. The piece feels opulent yet rooted in nature, like a little crown of pods rising from the finger. Its rare and unusual beauty gets noticed every time it is worn.
Cast in yellow bronze using the lost-wax method, the ring begins as a wax model hand-carved at the bench. The band has a slightly textured finish with smooth edges, tapering from 11mm wide at the top down to 6mm at the back. Verdigris patina fills the recessed areas inside the pods, deepening with wear. Kirsten reaches for this ring almost daily; it shares an angled band shape with the Angled Cigar band, though this style is more decadent and elaborate.

FAQ
What is the inspiration for the Bell Pod design?
The form draws on eucalyptus pods and seed structures, abstracted into a sculptural crown. The piece reads as both a botanical record and ancient relic.
Will the patina change over time?
Yes. The verdigris patina inside the recessed pods will deepen and evolve with wear, while the textured high points stay warm and burnished.
