It has been my practice, in my years selling rings made of bourbon barrel staves, to make the default option Jack Daniels® barrel oak. Indeed, before other sellers began...ah... practicing the sincerest form of flattery, this was the only option available, anywhere. Over the years customers have contacted me seeking a ring made with their favorite brand of whiskey, and they have even gone so far as to contact distilleries and source their own staves (something I invite you to do, if you want a completely personalized ring, or if you have some reason to doubt the provenance of my stock). They have always been very accommodating and enthusiastic. As a result, I have amassed barrel wood from many distilleries including Jack Daniels®, Woodford Reserve, Maker's Mark, Buffalo Trace, Jim Beam, Angel's Envy, Four Roses, The Macallan, Pappy (and Rip) Van Winkle, The Yamazaki, The Hakushu, and Hibiki.
I have a few other whiskey barrel wood options besides Jack Daniels®, including Jim Beam, Maker's Mark, Stranahan's, Four Roses, and Buffalo Trace. Scotch options include Balvenie, Macallan and more.
You will be required to indicate your preferred distillery in the "note to wedgewoodrings" section at checkout.
The inner portion of this ring is made of Cobalt - the most scratch resistant and shatterproof material I offer. Like titanium it is hypoallergenic and biocompatible. However, in many circumstances under which your Titanium ring might scratch, Cobalt will not. It is an alloy that is identical to Platinum in color, but it is an order of magnitude stronger. Cobalt offers nearly the scratch resistance of Tungsten Carbide, but unlike Tungsten, Cobalt will not shatter if dropped.
Comfort fit.
Sizing
I highly recommend going to a jewelry counter to determine your size, even if you believe you already know your size. "Do it yourself" ring sizing methods (string, etc.) should absolutely not be trusted. Be sure to be measured using the width you plan to order.
NOTE ON WIDTH:
The minimum width for this style is 5mm. The maximum is 8mm.
Recommended width is calculated in this way: Size 5 is 5mm wide. Width increases .5mm per size above that. So:
Size 5- 5mm
Size 6- 5.5mm
Size 7- 6mm
Size 8- 6.5mm
Size 9- 7mm
Size 10- 7.5mm
Size 11+ - 8mm
These rings will have 1mm flanks of cobalt to either side of the wood.
