Many people have a special memory from a time spent on one specific beach. Now there’s a way to wear that beach memory, literally, on your shirtsleeve—Custom Beach Cufflinks. Or, for women, there’s a variety of Custom Beach Necklaces.
The custom beach jewelry comes from Uncommon Goods, an online purveyor of all manner of cool stuff. The jewelry is handmade by taking a small amount of textured sand and then mounting it flat onto a piece of sterling silver. see more
Each person’s fingerprint is unique. And therein lays an idea for a wedding ring or wedding band that is unique too: A fingerprint implanted into the metal!

Jeremy May’s Paper Rings are literally so. But you have to look closely to notice. That’s because each is created with a “special” (read, secret) laminating process that compresses hundreds of sheets of paper into a hard, durable structure with a high gloss finish.
Close carefully, though, and you can see hints of each ring’s literary origins—patterns of paper, smidgeons of words and bits of illustration. Each ring is unique and May takes care to match each Paper Ring’s design to the book from which the paper came.
The Paper Rings are part of the literary-themed Littlefly collection that also includes bracelets, necklaces, pendants and earrings. Are are absolutely wonderful!
It’s neckwear that’s functional too. Or, at least it is when you are outside in shining sun. Then you can adjust the middle brass band of the Sundial Ring Pendant to the correct month and see the current time illuminated on the inside of the ring.
Alternatively, you could simply enjoy the Sundial Ring Pendant as an artistic, eye catching piece of jewelry while wearing a wrist watch.
