Black Zirconium Ring with Guitar String, Abalone Shell, & Koa Wood Tri-Inlay - 8mm, Dome Shape, Comfort Fitment

This zirconium ring is a handmade accent piece that embodies the spirit of Hawaii which features the Hawaiian koa wood. Zirconium will have a characteristic very similar to Titanium but a solid black. This is achieved by extreme temperatures which alters the metal at a molecular level to give them their black color. Shatter and break proof, the zirconium is a great alternative to other materials such as ceramic. The inlay will also be coated to protect it from moisture. The ring will be 100% moisture proof and can be worn in waters. 

Beautifully crafted with the Hawaiian koa, which is a exotic wood that originates from the Big Island of Hawai'i. Different parts of the island yields a distinctive hue to the color of the wood. The beautiful colors ranges from yellow or greenish-yellow, through orange, brown, and red, to almost black, and hues of different colors can be derived from a single trunk. In the Hawaiian language "koa" means "warrior" which symbolizes strength, fearlessness and bravery. From the ancient Hawaiian outrigger canoes to the birth of the first ancient surfboards and ukulele, the koa wood deserves more than ever be a widely recognized as a symbol of prestige and coloring.
