This design is handmade in my home studio in sterling silver. It has a textured surface on the exterior with a polished interior and on a few selective exterior parts. The textured areas have been blackened for contrast. The blackening will wear down over time on the more exposed bits and remain darker in the pits and recesses. This design is made to order with a 2-3 week production time. If time is a concern, check my "Ready to Ship" section as I may have one in your size on hand.
