Walnut Wood Rings




Walnut. Dark brown, honey toned and almost black... walnut comes in so many shades and grains, it's spectacular. Alone or in combination with other woods.


Blue spruce is a beauty with walnut.

Walnut, spruce and oak wood rings

There is something quite magical about doing custom work.

This very beautiful design was created by a couple in Vancouver, British Columbia.

What folks envision and then what David creates from their vision is artistic collaboration at it's finest.
The process is exciting. I thoroughly enjoy communicating with people as they design their rings, then communicating their desires to David who in turn creates their rings.

These rings are made of walnut, oak, blue spruce. The ring on the left also has a koa liner.

Stone and Wood Ring

A ring of love.


The gentleman enlisted the help of his Dad who sent us three kinds of wood from the family farm. Oak, cherry wood and walnut.

The couple decided on two of these woods to use for her engagement ring.

They had found a crystal on a hike they had taken and wanted to somehow incorporate a bit of the stone. David crafted the ring of walnut and oak wood they sent us and embedded the center band with crushed stone from the found crystal. The ring is a size 6 and 4mm wide.

"Wow!! The ring is absolutely beautiful! My parents really enjoyed seeing the ring and were really impressed by it. Thank you so much making this beautiful ring that we can now have to show our love for each other. We can't express to you enough how grateful and blessed we feel to have it. I guess the next thing that we will have to set up are the plans for the wedding bands."

This Colorado couple wrote:
"We were both amazed at the finished product. I was very nervous about trying it on. I had convinced myself that I was sized incorrectly, and I'd be heart-broken to have to wait on a new ring. She slid hers on, and loved it. After some convincing, I hesitantly put on my ring. It slipped onto my finger like I'd been wearing it for years. I had to fight the desire to wear it for the rest of the weekend.
Thanks so much! The rings are beautiful, and so much more than we anticipated."
