Twisted Rings are a Metal Designz Specialty! They are very unique and have endless possibilities for weaving and creating. In this process we take 2 pieces of wire and twist them together by hand. Then the twisted wire is coiled like normal and fed through the saw. Because this is a hand wound operation, there will be some variation in the rings. We will do our best to create these rings with as much continuity as possible, but please realize this is extremely difficult to have every ring EXACTLY alike.
We only offer these rings in Enameled Copper. It is EXTREMELY difficult twist wire that is very strong. Titanium is out of the question. Enameled copper is a softer metal and therefore it twists very well. You must be gentle with your pliers when weaving these rings, as you don't want to mark or disform the rings.

All rings are close to 18 gauge thickness. We twist 2 pieces of 20g together, so the gauge is not precise... but it's close!
Please specify the colours you would like twisted together! All examples pictured here are Non-Tarnish Silver with a colour.
As for colour combinations, the possibilities are endless... We can do solid colours or two colours together. The shipping time on these rings will be slightly more than our normal, same day shipping, as we will have to specially make these for each order as we build our stock up. We will still make every effort to get them out as soon as possible. Generally expect a 1 week lead time. We have to make equiptment adjustments, so generally need a few days to get to them.
