Sardine Ring
The Original Sardine Ring
Here it is—the signature Sardine Ring, inspired by the viral earrings that started it all. First introduced in 2023, the sardine motif has become an iconic symbol in our collection, sparking a wave of fish-inspired jewelry across the industry. This ring brings the same charm and detail of the original studs into a bold, wearable sculpture for the hand.
Available in bronze, sterling silver, and solid 10K gold, the Sardine Ring is cast in ancient, earthy metals with a timeless feel. Bronze is the most accessible and durable option, finished with a protective seal to slow tarnishing (and arrives with a polishing cloth). For those seeking luxury or hypoallergenic wear, sterling silver and 10K gold offer bright, tarnish-resistant alternatives suited to fine jewelry collectors.
Though the sardine form is striking, the ring is carefully designed for comfort—lightweight enough for everyday wear, yet solid and substantial in the hand. Each fish wraps slightly around the finger, with a gentle asymmetry that mirrors the playfulness of the original earrings.
Whimsical, slightly wild, and surprisingly refined—the Sardine Ring is for those who like their statements with a sense of humor and history.

Sizing: this ring can fit as small as a 6.5 and can be sized to as big as a 12. You’re welcome to stretch your own ring out to larger than a 12, but at 6.5 the Sardine is closed and can’t be made any smaller. Rings are sized with as much accuracy as possible but might need some adjusting.
Metals: you can purchase the Sardine ring in Bronze, Silver, and 10K Gold. The metals I use are recycled, high quality metals.
This ring is READY TO SHIP and will be shipped within 2 weeks of purchase date.
Caring for Your Jewelry
Our pieces are made to be worn often and kept for years to come. As they accompany you through life, you’ll notice changes—scratches, marks, and natural tarnishing may appear. Rather than seeing these as imperfections, we view them as part of the story the jewelry tells—a visual reminder of the moments it's lived through with you.
Because we use raw, uncoated metals, they are free to shift and react to the world around them. This is intentional. These materials are organic by nature, and like all natural things, they evolve over time. Below are some tips to help you care for your jewelry while appreciating the character it develops.
Sterling Silver
Silver reacts to air and moisture, which may lead to a darker tone over time. Ironically, one of the best ways to keep it bright is to wear it—the oils in your skin help protect the surface. If you're storing it for a while, keep it sealed in an airtight bag or container. To remove tarnish, a silver polishing cloth usually works well. For heavier discoloration, use steel wool.
Yellow Bronze
Bronze contains a high level of copper, so it naturally darkens as it’s exposed to moisture and humidity. For some, it may also leave a greenish tint on the skin, especially if your skin has a more acidic pH. This is safe and temporary—similar to what gives the Statue of Liberty its green hue. To slow the aging of bronze:
Avoid water exposure.
Dry thoroughly if it gets wet.
In humid conditions, store in a sealed bag with a piece of chalk or moisture-absorbing packet.
To bring back its shine, we recommend using Brasso. A more unconventional but effective trick is soaking the piece in ketchup—the natural acids help lift oxidation gently. You can also use the Sunshine brand polishing cloth that’s included with your order.
We encourage you to let your jewelry age gracefully. Each mark and change is part of what makes it yours—personal, worn-in, and well-loved.
