The carbon fiber jewelry ring is a fashionable ring that can be worn by both men and women. It was designed by brothers and engineers Jack and Patrick Aubin of Seattle.
Having experience working with carbon fiber in the aerospace and healthcare industries respectively, the brothers decided to band together and apply their knowledge to create a carbon fiber ring. The ring is made entirely of aerospace-grade carbon fiber. Using state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques, the carbon fiber is molded and manipulated into a ring-like shape. Each ring is then sliced, sanded and polished by hand.
The use of carbon fiber means the ring is highly scratch-resistant and durable but incredibly lightweight at the same time.
The ring contains absolutely no metal, which makes it a great option for people allergic to nickel, a common allergen that is present in a lot of jewelry. It comes in a range of sizes for folks of different finger girths.
