Introducing the Asterisk Ring

March 22, 2010 by WendyB

I was going to save my newest ring design for April’s Jewel of the Month post but I can’t stand the suspense. Here is my first addition to the Wendy Brandes swear rings set: the sterling silver asterisk ring.

Click to purchase.

If you already have the four-ring swear ring set, or plan to get it, you can use the asterisk to mix it up a bit, like I did last year.

Click me to read about this outfit.

The asterisk also looks great on its own, of course. I don’t plan to sell any of the original silver set separately, so if you’re looking for a one-ring look, this is your chance. Like the other swear rings, the band is adjustable, meaning one size fits most. The starting size is size 6, but you can gently bend the band open to fit a larger size or squeeze it closed to fit a smaller size.

A lot of people have asked me about getting the swear rings in gold. I will happily plate the original four-ring set with 14K gold. The gold-plated set costs $525.  If you want the asterisk gold-plated, it will be $150. If you want any of these rings in solid 18K gold, you’re my type of person — the type with a lot of money and the good taste to spend it with me. I will do any character by itself for a custom 18K gold order. Contact me at wbjewelry at hotmail dot com for any gold-plated or gold orders.

If you need inspiration for styling your Wendy Brandes swear rings, check out gorgeous blogger Solo Lisa’s latest post.

UPDATED TO ADD: The first asterisk ring was sold in under an hour to gorgeous reporter friend Amy! And three more after that. I now have eight rings left for immediate delivery. After the first batch is gone, I will make more but there will be a wait!

    You really are something else. We often joke about being asterisks, and while we’re still being fiscally responsible, I’m putting it on my wish list.

    Smiles at you Miss Wendy,

    Is it wrong to want to wear all four of the rings and imagine punching people and leaving marks on their faces?

    I’m guessing that’s probably not what you were going for…
