White Porcelain Curved Ring
This adjustable ring is handcrafted from white porcelain ceramic and finished clear glaze, high-shine surface that looks innocent… but knows exactly what it’s doing. Minimal, crisp, and dangerously easy to wear, it’s proof that simple doesn’t mean boring.
The porcelain is a bright, clean white — smooth, luminous, and unapologetically fresh. Lightweight and comfortable, it’s designed for everyday wear but won’t complain if you take it out for something fancy.
Key Features
Material: White porcelain ceramic - hypoallergenic, durable, and far tougher than it looks. Don’t underestimate it.
Design: A sleek arced, circular form with a shiny glaze finish. Clean lines, no nonsense, all confidence.
Fit: Set on an open back adjustable ring base, because fingers change and jewellery should be flexible about it.
Style: Lightweight, versatile, and quietly bold. Subtle enough for daily wear, statement enough to get noticed.
This ring is basically a blank canvas with excellent boundaries. It plays beautifully with silver, gold, or a full jewellery stack - or stands alone when you want to keep things sharp and intentional.
Minimal effort. Maximum effect.
From Sketchbook to Skin — The Process
Every piece begins the same way: as an idea. A sketch. A shape. A colour.
From there, the design is formed slowly by hand in clay — deliberate, tactile, and never rushed. Once the form and surface are complete and left to dry slowly so as to avoid cracking, the pieces head into their first firing. This initial firing reaches 1060°C and takes around 24 hours, transforming the delicate bone-dry clay into its first ceramic state.
After cooling, each piece is carefully wet-sanded. This is where hidden designs emerge, edges soften, and the true character of the clay starts to show itself.
Depending on the design, pieces are either glazed or left raw before returning to the kiln for a second firing. This mid-fire firing reaches 1220°C, another 24+ hour journey that locks in strength, surface, and finish.
Some designs take things a little further. When gold lustre is used, the piece goes back into the kiln for a third and final firing - a gentler one at around 700°C - allowing the gold to settle softly onto the surface.
Once firing is complete, every piece is inspected again and wet-sanded by hand, some designs gradually moving through finer grits until the surface reaches a smooth, buttery finish. The final buffing brings out a natural polish that feels as good as it looks. Others left raw, matte, earthy.
Only then does the ceramic become what it was always meant to be — a piece of jewellery, designed from the very first sketch to be worn, lived in, and carried with you.
