The story behind the ring

A lot of my designs are started by ideas handed to me by my friends and I am really grateful to them for that. The Tirering for instance came about because a friend asked me if I could transform his old wedding band into ring that looks like a Michelin tire. The process of turning the idea into a ring took nearly a full year. First I had to make a good technical drawing of the profile that could be turned into an engraving in such a way that it would be without beginning and end like on a real tire. Then I had to find an engraver who could do it to my standard (a real struggle that was) But after a few misses and a lot of miscommunication the ring is now available in various versions and found its way to a lot of happy wearers. And the friend who started it? He now has two rings! The first conceptual one and a bespoke one in titanium ;-)
