Suzie & Niche & Their Rings

Our client Suzie sent us the SWEETEST email, one in a series of VERY SWEET emails:

"I just don't think we would have ever felt like this about any other rings. It's like they're alive and a piece of us, a piece of one another. This morning I received a text from Niche stating how sad he was because he forgot to put his ring back on when he got out of the shower before work. And then a little later on he sent me one stating that it's bad enough being without me all day, but since he's been wearing his ring it's like he can look down and there I am with him all the time and it makes his day better, but today he hasn't even had that. It's just crazy how something so simple like a wooden ring can carry so much weight. 

I don't usually like to place much value in material things, but these really are different. They really are a part of something. A part of us, and you, and the craftsperson, and Chicago, and the tree, and the stones, and the Earth. They really are FULL circles. 

It's just really nice and comforting to feel the 'warmth of wood'  (pretty sure I stole that from y'all somewhere along the way) and know that there are people out there who have respect for and honor their work and nature."


Sales-wonder Allison collaborated with Suzie to design this beautiful natural diamond, patina'd silver and rich walnut ring. Niche's is a simple and beautiful walnut band, to match.

We congratulate Suzie and Niche on their matrimony, and on being awesome people!
