I'm kinda the "anti diamond ring" type, unless of course the diamond is in a cherished antique or heirloom ring, but I don't like the giant, look how many carats I'm worth style of diamond rings and neither does Michelle Kendrick of Recycled Rings. In an effort to create something new by reconstructing found jewelry and make a statement about harmful diamond mining practices, Michelle has created a new line of eco-friendly cocktail rings-
Each "setting" is hand sewn using different embroidery techniques and combines beads, wires and other light catching objects. They're placed on found ring bases which means each one is recycled and doesn't harm the earth at all. Find them only at Recycled Rings and make a statement while staying stylish!
mmm, french knots and rings... an unlikely pair but they're popping up everywhere lately! found this one on etsy a few days ago and i am in *love* http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=271531
