925 Sterling Silver Coiled Serpent Ring - Size N-P
10.60g of solid 925 silver — coiled, scaled, and impossible to ignore.
Crafted in hallmarked 925 sterling silver, the Coiled Serpent ring wraps a heavily textured serpent body around the finger — upper tail at 3.7mm, lower tail at 6mm, with an all-over scale-inspired surface and intentional oxidation deepening the recesses between scales for maximum visual depth. At 10.60g of verified solid silver, this is one of the heaviest rings in the collection. The open band adjusts to fit UK N–P with gentle pressure.
Worn by people who mean it. A collector's piece with real symbolic weight — in every sense.

Genuine 925 sterling silver tarnishes naturally over time — a slow oxidation reaction that produces a warm grey patina on the surface. On a heavily textured piece like the Coiled Serpent, tarnish develops first in the scale recesses, where air and moisture concentrate. The key test is how the piece responds: real 925 polishes clean on the raised scale surfaces with a soft silver cloth, while the intentional oxidation in the recesses stays put — giving you full control over the finish. Base metal pieces often develop uneven, greenish, or flaky discolouration in the recesses that doesn't respond cleanly to polishing. A piece that cleans up beautifully on the raised surfaces while holding its dark contrast in the grooves is behaving exactly as genuine oxidised 925 silver should.

FAQs
1. How adjustable is the band — can I resize it myself?
Yes, but with care — at 10.60g and 4mm band thickness, this is a substantial ring that requires more intentional pressure to adjust than a lighter open band. Start at UK O and ease open or closed within UK N–P gradually. The solid construction means it holds its adjusted position firmly once set.
2. Is 10.60g comfortable for everyday wear?
It's a statement piece with real weight — you'll feel it, which is part of the appeal. The coiled wrap distributes the weight evenly around the finger rather than concentrating it at the top, which helps with all-day comfort. Best suited as a feature ring rather than one of several on the same hand.
3. How do I care for the oxidised scale texture?
Polish the raised scale surfaces lightly with a soft silver cloth to keep them bright — avoid heavy pressure in the recesses to preserve the intentional darkening. Do not use silver dip solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, which will strip the oxidation entirely. Store separately to protect the textured surface. Full guidance at our Silver Care Card.
