Black Ceramic Channel Ring

Description

Black Ceramic Channel Ring made of super tough ceramic. No need for a bezel cup or mould, this ring is designed to be filled. You can work with UV resin and cure in layers, or put the ring on a cup spinner and use epoxy resin.

Ring Material

This ring is made from tough ceramic, which is not a precious metal. If you’d prefer solid silver click here or for solid gold click here. If your ceramic ring becomes chipped, luckily it will usually be hard to notice due to the colour running all the way through.

Polished Black Ceramic Ring with Channel Groove

Our Black Ceramic Channel Rings are sophisticated, modern and bold. They have smoothed edges and an easy to put on comfort fit band, they’re scratch-resistant and waterproof, non-conductive and hypoallergenic. Found just below diamond on the Mohs hardness scale, this material is tough, strong and almost completely scratch-proof. The charcoal black colour of our black ceramic rings gives a rugged, industrial or gothic aesthetic. It is nickel-free and metal-free, corrosion and tarnish-free and completely hypoallergenic, making it safe for even the most sensitive skin. They’re also temperature stable, they don’t get hot in the sun or super cold in the winter like metal rings.

This setting joins the Hannah Marquise ring setting and the Ayla Solitaire ring setting in our new range of settings for artists working in the keepsake and memorial jewellery industry.

These rings are available to ship straight away (when showing as in stock) and do not need to be made to order as we stock every size from UK K upwards (we can add smaller sizes on request especially for larger orders), please see our sizing info below! We can also create this ring in any metal to order, just get in touch for a quote based on current metal prices such as 9ct gold and platinum.

You can fill with resin in safe knowledge that it can’t pop out again. You can order some channel ring stock images here to show your clients some mockups before they buy (please remember the instructions for use advise you to tell your clients results will vary!).

Channel Ring Size

Chunky – 6mm total width, 3mm channel appx. with high edges to hold the resin in place. The Chunky Channel Ring is a very wide band and comfort fit, meaning it has a curved band internally. We highly recommend you find out your client’s ring size and recommend they go up one UK size (half a US size) to allow for the tight fit. You cannot resize these rings either before or after you fill with resin; you are always welcome to return or exchange if they don’t fit your client, so long as you haven’t added resin yet!

Channel Ring Finish

The Channel Ring is polished to a shiny finish.
