They're all made of walnut!

We love the Nuts About You ring for its monomaterial elegance: the wood is walnut, the inlay is crushed walnut. 

Walnut is -- as we 21st century eaters know -- FULL of Omega-3s and healthy fats, protein and a great woody umami taste. It's also known for focus, energy, and strength. Its scientific name -- juglans -- translates to "tree of Jupiter," the Roman god of the sky, (Zeus, for you Greek myth nerdlets out there). It's a plant which unites pragmatic functionality and heroic strength. 

Convinced as we are? Head on over to the shop to get one on your functional, strong little finger.
