Solid sterling silver is fashioned into one band with 2 snakes curving up to meet on the top of the band. This band is detailed with scored lines, scale shapes, and eyes, then antiqued to highlight the patterns, giving this ring depth. Snake patterns extend around the back of the ring. This ring is adjustable and fit is a little looser than regular sizing. Snake heads may meet a different areas depending on your particular ring. Adjustable rings should be adjusted once to fit, then avoid opening and closing to preserve your band.
Sterling Silver is composed of 92.5% fine silver and 7.5% copper alloy, added to harden it. Sterling silver should be stored properly and kept from heavy chemicals to keep from tarnishing, but unlike many metals, it can be cleaned and returned to its original shine. Use the most gentle cleaner that can get the job done: Silver can be cleaned with a silver polishing cloth, or gentle all purpose jewelry cleaner. Be sure to protect stones when cleaning silver.
If you want your jewelry to last, remember the old saying: “Jewelry should be the last thing you put on, and the first thing you remove”.
Keep it clean by keeping it away from chemicals, lotions, perfumes, excessive humidity, and protect from heavy, hard wearing activities such as sports, heavy work, or vigorous exercise. The main culprits that shorten the life of your jewelry are: never taking it off, wearing it while sleeping, wearing it in hot tubs and pools, and while playing sports. Store in an airtight container such as jewelry box or zip lock baggie while not wearing. When storing long term, make sure to clean and dry thoroughly before storing.
