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.

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 serpent does not threaten. It guards.
In ancient Egypt, the cobra was not a symbol of danger — it was the uraeus, worn by pharaohs as a mark of divine protection. In Norse tradition, the serpent Jörmungandr encircled the world not to destroy it but to hold it together. Across cultures and centuries, the coiled snake has carried the same dual meaning: power that protects, and stillness that conceals force. Here, two serpents flank a domed obsidian stone — not decorating the ring, but guarding what sits at its center.
The obsidian is not incidental. Black obsidian has been used as a protective stone across Mesoamerican, Japanese, and Mediterranean cultures — a material associated with clarity, truth, and the removal of what does not belong. Set between coiled serpent bodies, it becomes the eye of something older than the ring itself.
If you're drawn to dark aesthetic rings with layered symbolic depth, this is where ancient guardianship meets wearable form.
Design Highlights
- Twin coiled serpents — bodies wrapping the band, heads flanking the stone
- Oval obsidian cabochon — domed, deep black, set at center
- Textured serpent scales — organic detail across the full band surface
- Oxidized silver finish — shadow caught in every scale, worn-in presence on the hand
The Symbolism
The serpent guarding a stone is one of the oldest images in human symbolic art — from the dragon hoarding treasure in Norse myth to the snake coiled around the omphalos stone at Delphi. The obsidian at the center of this ring is not decoration. It is what the serpents are there to protect. Wearing it is a statement about what you carry and what you choose to guard.
Material & Craft
- 316L surgical-grade stainless steel with a weight you can feel
- Tarnish-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and skin-friendly for everyday wear
- Oxidized finish deepens the serpent scale texture — shadow built into every coil
