These mossy pieces of ‘Living Jewelry’ are just part of a unique collection by Adorn Jewelry from Seattle, Washinton. The silver plated rings are the second design in Adorn Jewelry’s ‘Living Jewelry’ line and are aptly called ‘Gather’; as in ‘gather no moss’. However these rings have apparently stayed still too long and have sprouted some of the green matter right on top.
Adorn Jewelry notes, ‘Gather’ rings are “easy to care for as this moss has no need for sunlight or water!” The faux moss is made of latex ‘sprouts’ which have been hand-cut, backed by foam and ‘planted’ into the bezels of the rings. They look like adorable tiny putting greens.
The globe shaped ring was the first in the ‘Living Jewelry’ line called ‘Cenote’. “The dome atop the ring features a hole that leads to a miniature canvern in which to plant a bit of moss or lichen.”
The rings are available on Adorn Jewelry’s Etsy shop at an affordable cost of $22 for the ‘Gather’ series and $48 U.S for the ‘Cenote’ rings.
