Antique-Style Engagement and Wedding Rings That Feel Right From the First Wear

 

 

 

A Texture That Invites Touch

 

For those who find the glossy, shiny look of wedding and engagement rings somewhat unappealing, we'd like to introduce rings that possess a used texture or evoke a sense of nostalgia with their design.

 

Here, we showcase rings designed for long-term wear, highlighting their unique features.

 

 

Classic & Romantic Design

| Erba |

A design incorporating engraved laurel leaves on a slender, rounded ring reminiscent of a crown, evoking Greek mythology.

It blends classical, modern, romantic, and antique elements, featuring milgrain edging.

 

 

| Spear |

This design showcases small diamonds flanking the center stone and additional melee diamonds along the arm, offering not just splendor but also a solemn aura.

 

Crafting in gold dramatically changes the ambiance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Elegant and Natural Design

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

| Milgrain |

Named after the tiny bead-like decorations that edge the ring, a technique widely used in Europe and commonly found on antique pieces.

 

The overall texture of the piece is created by a craftsman who uses tools to etch a grid pattern, resulting in a matt texture that gives a neat and orderly impression due to the regular pattern.

 

| Arrow |

The engagement ring is accentuated by milgrain decoration, which stands out more due to the concave design from the ring's edge towards the center, making the milgrain appear more three-dimensional.

 

The narrowing of the arms towards the center also effectively draws the eye towards the diamond.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 "One-of-a-Kind" Designs Showcasing Handcraftsmanship

 

 

| Piuma |

The wedding ring's diagonal lines extend in four directions, emulating the texture of feathers.

Rather than carved, the lines are delicately drawn, offering a unique tactile experience.

 

The center of the ring features an engraved pattern that depicts the twinkling of stars.

 

 

 

 

 

| Iris |

The design features intricate engravings on the sides, enhancing its artistic appeal.

From every angle, the ring appears vibrant, yet the handcrafted engravings and decorations lend a subtle understated charm.

 

 

| Fiore |

An engagement ring romantically finished to resemble flowers and leaves, reminiscent of something one might find at a flea market in Paris, blending luxury with playful charm.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Designs with an Old Yet New Worn Texture

 

 

| Tsutime Aki |

"Tsuchime" refers to a pattern created by hammering the ring's surface.

The fineness of the pattern varies with the hammer's face size.

 

The very fine hammered texture on the ring, more than just a pattern, gives a delicate sense of unevenness, reminiscent of weathered stone or rock.

 

 

| Roccia |

"Roccia," meaning rock in Italian, is an ith-exclusive texture transferred from an iron plate, creating a tactile sensation that makes you want to touch it, adding a unique depth to the ring with its worn texture.

 

 

 

 

 

Timeless Appeal

Rings with an antique mood offer timeless elegance and a texture that becomes even more appealing with wear, seamlessly blending with the wearer's life over the years.

 

Each ring at ith is handcrafted, delivering a warm texture and classical design, meticulously finished by skilled artisans.
