mellita quinquiesperforata - Five-Hole Sand Dollar
Sand dollars are interesting creatures, they can reproduce both asexually through larval cloning, as well as sexually through external fertilization. Young larvae take a long time to mature, but when large enough, they begin to consume sand, which is stored in their gut to weigh them to the ocean floor.
The Sand Dollar Ring is made from the molding and casting of a real five-hole sand dollar in recycled silver. A friend found the original in Florida.
Once the casting is created, I solder on a ring band made to your size.
The sand dollar itself is 3/4" long and wide. The band is 2mm wide.
This design is currently available in polished sterling silver but other metals, finishes and chains are always available, message me for custom options and a quote. All HKM Jewelry pieces are properly hallmarked for metal type and stamped for authenticity.
If you do not know your ring size I can send you a free sizer, just reach out via email and let me know you need one! - Hali@hkmjewelry.com
