Like this ring but need it in a different size? Shopring and let our skilled artisans craft the perfect whiskey barrel and black cherry band for you.
Ancient as it may be, there is an undeniable refinement about whiskey and its production. Whiskey barrels come from hand-selected oak trees, usually from the white oak family, and are the primary means by which the flavor of the final spirit is achieved. The charred inside of a whiskey barrel acts to remove Sulphur while the wood sugars are caramelized and leech into the whiskey. Our weathered whiskey barrel wooden rings are an ode to those smoky barrels that cure your favorite whiskey to maturity.
We're all about simplicity in design. To us, that's elegance. We added a 14k white gold inlay to this ring to take it a notch higher, and to give it some refinement and class. The balance of rusticity and Main street appeal make this a great ring for formal or flannel.
My home sits on what used to be an orchard, and a few old trees still exist near me. The black cherry wood used in this ring comes from a 35 foot tall black cherry tree that came down in my back yard. I cut it in lengths of about 6 feet, sealed the ends with wax, and let it cure for over a year. Afterwards, I split the logs into quarters and let them dry in my shed. I have had a lot of good use from that old cherry tree and now its wood makes its way into these rings.
Black cherry provides an excellent contrast in color to the smoky gray whiskey barrel wood, which is why I have decided to use it in this design.
