A contemporary signet ring, modeled in 9k yellow gold and hand-engraved by the artist Castro Smith. This ring features a birds motif: an airborne swallow, diving amid five-petaled flowers, decorates the ring face, while hummingbirds, with long, trailing tail-feathers, grace each shoulder. The hummingbirds are accompanied by further flowers (cherry blossoms?), here growing on branches. And at the base of the ring shank, a lone bee, surrounded by falling blossoms. Each of our bird friends has a sparkling diamond eye! 

Castro Smith's bright-cut, seal-style engraving is precise and time-consuming— it is done in reverse (as if intended for use as a stamp), and it is highly dimensional. This is one of our favorite Castro Smith rings— the balance of the design elements and the graceful lines of the images are especially winning! This ring is as-new and it comes with its original Castro Smith packaging.
