"Nicola and David,
I had a wonderful surprise waiting for me when I got home from work Friday night. The ring you made for me was breathtaking. There are not enough adjectives to describe the beauty of it and the excitement that both myself and my partner experienced when we opened the package. We can't thank you enough for the work you do for the environment, but also for the things you do to make an important time in peoples' lives even more precious. I will look down at the ring everyday feeling inspired and blessed. Please feel free to post this on your website and let everyone know that visits your site, how special you both are to 2 Rhode Island lesbians! :) We will keep in touch and send you pictures from the ceremony. Thanks again and please let us know how you are from time to time. Words cannot adequately describe how thankful we both are.
Stump"

Touch Wood Rings, Wear the warmth of wood

Rose wood wedding rings with maple wood bands ~

Nicola and David -
"We have received our rings and they're wonderful! I'd only been wearing it for 2 hours and three people had already noticed it and asked me about it! Justin and I are so happy with our choice. Funny enough, when my mom tried on my ring she commented, "Wow, it's so much warmer than gold or silver." I guess your motto is quite appropriate. Thank you so much for making it possible for us to make a sustainable choice for our wedding bands. "

"I am so grateful for your hard work, excellent service, and beautiful craftsmanship that have gone into creating our rings and getting them to us.

I had never wanted to wear something flashy, and I had also recently resolved not to buy diamonds because of the ethical issues.

As two musicians who play wooden instruments (flute and clarinet) we appreciate the warmth and soul of wood. There is a liveliness and spirit in my ring that I have never felt in other, metal rings I've worn. When I placed it on my finger, it fit perfectly. I marveled at the subtlety and elegance of the actual ring." Thank you ~ Katherine

Musical wooden rings

This set of Touch Wood wedding rings was designed by a musician couple. They wanted to incorporate wood from each of their instruments. The two narrow bands on these birds eye maple wood rings are Grenadilla and Rosewood. Grenadilla (also called African black wood) is what clarinets are made of and the rosewood is the wood used in a marimba.

Here are some of Mike's comments:
"I don't know if this is a similar experience to a metal ring.... but this ring feels so good.... comforting, even.... a palpable energy! I'm so proud of it, the grenadilla and rosewood go so well together. David's amazing. The craftmanship is to not be believed. "
