999 Fine Silver Bow Ring - Twisted Wire Ribbon - Adjustable J
Bow Ring – A Tied Ribbon in Twisted 999 Fine Silver
This ring is a bow, tied and left as it fell. Two loops sit above two tails that trail down and around to become the band, and the whole length is drawn in twisted wire, so the light runs along it in a spiral rather than sitting flat. The bow measures 12.5mm across and 7.64mm tall, which is enough to be unmistakable from a distance without being a statement ring. It weighs 1.35g in 999 fine silver, 99.9% pure, certified by the maker.
The band is open at the back and sits at roughly UK J, adjusting a little either side. There is no fineness stamp on this piece – the twisted wire simply has no flat surface to take one – so the purity comes from the maker’s certificate rather than a mark you can read on the ring. We would rather tell you that than leave you wondering why you cannot find a stamp. What the marks mean and when they are required is set out in our 925 vs S925 guide.

A bow is a knot that agrees to come undone. That is the whole idea: strong enough to hold, tied so it can be released. Eighteenth-century jewellers set diamond bows at the throat as love tokens for exactly that reason, and the motif has come back around as one of the most recognisable symbols in jewellery today. A gift for her that says attachment without permanence. More motif meanings at JewelMotif™ · Watch & read: Silver, The Moon Metal
足银 999 is fine silver at 99.9% pure – brighter and whiter than sterling, and softer. 925 sterling adds 7.5% copper for hardness. Both are real silver; the difference is durability, not authenticity. This ring carries no fineness stamp because twisted wire offers no flat face to strike one on, and at 1.35g it sits well under the 7.78g weight at which UK hallmarking becomes compulsory. Full detail in our 925 vs S925 guide, and care on the Silver Care Card.
FAQs
1. Why is there no 925 or 999 stamp on this ring?
Because there is nowhere to put one. The band is twisted wire the whole way round with no flat inner face to strike a mark on. The purity is documented by the maker’s certificate instead. UK hallmarking is only compulsory for silver at 7.78g and above, and this ring is 1.35g.
2. Is it still real silver?
Yes – 999 fine silver, 99.9% pure, which is a higher purity than sterling. The absence of a stamp reflects how the piece is made, not what it is made of.
3. UK J is small – will it fit me?
It sits at about a J and opens a little either side. J is a slim finger size, so this is one to measure for, or to wear on the little finger if you normally take a larger size.
4. Will the twisted wire lose its shape?
Fine silver is soft, so treat the bow as the delicate part – adjust by the plain tails near the opening, never by the loops. Store it flat where nothing can press on it. The Silver Care Card covers storage.
How to Style the Bow Ring
A bow is a focal point, so give it space – worn alone, or with plain narrow bands on neighbouring fingers rather than stacked directly against it. It pairs naturally with ribbon and pearl pieces. Browse the 925 Sterling Silver collection, the full Rings range, or JewelGift™ for gifting ideas.
