RING SIZE GUIDE
Find your perfect fit — before the ring finds you.
01
Cut a thin strip of paper or use a piece of string. Wrap it snugly around the base of your finger.
02
Mark the point where the paper or string overlaps with a pen. This marks your finger's circumference.
03
Lay your string flat and measure the distance between the marks in millimeters.

OPEN BAND RINGS
Select Veilhinge rings feature an open band design and can be gently adjusted ±1 size from their original shipped size for a comfortable fit. To avoid metal fatigue, we recommend minimal and gradual adjustment — do not bend the band back and forth repeatedly.
SIZING TIPS
Measure at the end of the day — fingers are slightly larger then, giving you the most comfortable fit.
If you're between sizes, size up for a more comfortable wear.
Knuckle larger than the base of your finger? Measure both and choose a size in between.
Still unsure? We're here.

The heart does not lie. Neither do the nails.
The anatomical heart has been a symbol of truth and vulnerability since the earliest medical illustrations of the Renaissance — the organ stripped of metaphor, shown as it actually is: muscular, asymmetrical, imperfect. This pendant takes that form and drives nails through it. Not as violence, but as a statement about what it means to feel deeply in a world that rewards numbness. The nails do not destroy the heart. They hold it in place.
Each pendant is individually hand-finished — the heart form and nail detail worked by hand to preserve the tension between the organic shape and the hard geometry of the nails. The antique silver finish is applied to build shadow into every recess, making the anatomy read clearly at any angle.
Design Highlights
- Sculpted anatomical heart — realistic form, not decorative abstraction
- Multiple nails piercing the surface — tension between softness and force
- Deep carved surface detail — shadow and definition built into the form
- Antique silver finish — aged, worn, relic-like
- Chain included — ready to wear as a standalone statement
The Symbolism
The Sacred Heart iconography — a heart pierced, crowned, burning — has appeared in religious and folk art for centuries as a symbol of endurance through suffering. This pendant strips away the religious framing and keeps the core idea: that what is most vulnerable is also what is most resilient. The heart survives the nails. That is the point.
Material & Craft
- 316L surgical-grade stainless steel with a weight you can feel
- Tarnish-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and skin-friendly for everyday wear
- Antique silver finish hand-applied to deepen the anatomical detail — shadow caught between every nail and fold
- Built to sit close to the chest — a quiet symbol worn where it matters
