Ground Dweller Ring
COMMISSION to make a one of a kind "Ground Dweller Ring" similar to pictures
*Currently listed as out of stock until I have time to make more* I will update my instagram account when I am releasing a new batch. Follow for updates on Instagram @JamieSpinello
*THE ORIGINAL ONES PICTURED HAVE SOLD*
Solid Sterling Silver and Turquoise
Each "Ground Dweller" ring is custom made and one of a kind. I use multiple plant elements from my vast collection of molds taken from plants in my garden and on hikes to constructs wax models of these rings that I then melt away after surrounding it in plaster cast (one time mold) and pour molten silver in to the mold to make this ring.
SIZE: This is a commission, I can make any size. Please add your size to the input form upon checkout. The approximate size of the the center piece of this ring is around 1"-1.25" wide.
I cast each one in my studio with my casting equipment. I make each one, one at a time. Each is slightly different, since each is handmade from wax casts taken from a plant growing in my garden. Every single one is special and one of a kind, I make each with care to the specific size specified during checkout. Please message me if you have any questions.

FeverFew Earrings
FeverFew Leaf Earrings - Handmade in Austin, Tx - Plant Jewelry - Statement Earrings - made by Jamie Spinello
Size: From ear wire to the tip of the leaves, each measures just under 2" long.
Parthenium Hysterophorus, also known as Santa Maria Feverfew. I was really attracted to the lacy leaves of this "weed" growing in my garden, so I utilized its leaves in a few designs and learned more about it. 'SantaMaria Feverfew' / 'Parthenium Hysterophorus', is a native plant to northern Mexico and Texas. Although it is often pulled from the garden as a weed, it actually has positive affects on the surrounding plants by pulling nitrogen from the air and releasing it into the soil. It was once used by native people for treatment of fever illnesses, similarly to the European FeverFew herbaceous plant.
Material: The pair in the picture is cast in Bronze. {pick your material preference from drop down}
1. Bronze (shown)
2. Sterling Silver
Shipping: I ship via Priority USPS mail within the US and first class to all international locations.

This is my carved rendition of a garden snake that I then cast in Sterling Silver.
Size: {Please enter your size during checkout}
These rings are slightly adjustable, so you can adjust it a little after you receive it. Note how I can open the snake up longer if desired (as shown with the picture of the golden bronze snake).
If you have a preference for it to be shorter or longer, please be sure to add your preference to the notes section during checkout.
Many species of snakes are given an unwarranted bad reputation and non-venomous species are killed for no other reason other than fear and ignorance. Snakes are integral to our ecosystem and an attribute to any garden. I made this cuff to honor all of the beauty of all the wonderful non venomous snakes that are often found around the garden. Read up on non venomous snakes in your area to familiarize yourself with their patterns and features to avoid killing a harmless species.

Ammonites were prehistoric creatures that were (essentially) the predecessors of the present day chambered nautilus. They were cephalopods that lived on the bottom of the ocean inside their chambered shells millions of years ago. Each cell within their shell was a new room they built for their body as they grew, leaving behind the smaller cell they once inhabited, and so I view the chambered nautilus, as many do, as a symbol for the spiral of life; symbolizing how we endure and grow through our own chapters. I have always been fascinated by the chambered nautilus and its beautiful geometry, so exact and so absolute.

'The Chambered Nautilus'
(Oliver Wendell Holmes)
This is the ship of pearl, which, poets feign,
Sails the unshadowed main,—
The venturous bark that flings
On the sweet summer wind its purpled wings
In gulfs enchanted, where the siren sings,
And coral reefs lie bare,
Where the cold sea-maids rise to sun their streaming hair.
Its webs of living gauze no more unfurl;
Wrecked is the ship of pearl!
And every chambered cell,
Where its dim dreaming life was wont to dwell,
As the frail tenant shaped his growing shell,
Before thee lies revealed,—
Its irised ceiling rent, its sunless crypt unsealed!
Year after year beheld the silent toil
That spread his lustrous coil;
Still, as the spiral grew,
He left the past year’s dwelling for the new,
Stole with soft step its shining archway through,
Built up its idle door,
Stretched in his last-found home, and knew the old no more.
Thanks for the heavenly message brought by thee,
Child of the wandering sea,
Cast from her lap, forlorn!
From thy dead lips a clearer note is born
Than ever Triton blew from wreathèd horn!
While on mine ear it rings,
Through the deep caves of thought I hear a voice that sings:—
Build thee more stately mansions, O my soul,
As the swift seasons roll!
Leave thy low-vaulted past!
Let each new temple, nobler than the last,
Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast,
Till thou at length art free,
Leaving thine outgrown shell by life’s unresting sea!
