Hey everyone, I haven't been on here in a bit. When I'm not working I'm in the jewelry studio making stuff that's finally ready to show off.

My stuff is inspired by bikes, moving parts, heavy duty and style. I'm not working with skulls or chain links. Not that there's anything wrong with that, there's just a ton of it out there. I've been working hard for the past few months on these and thought I'd share. If you want to like my page on facebook, it's facebook.com/silverpistonrings

Throttler Spin Ring
This piece is big, heavy, awesome and low maintenance despite its unique moving parts. Put it on and do what you do. With its hammered texture, oxidized finish and heavy gauge silver, you can't hurt it. And don't worry, it looks mean but it won't hurt you.






Adventurist Spin Ring
A topographic inspired ring is my latest ring. Still working on how to do this again.




Moto Lady Cocktail Ring
This ring is made of 10 gauge sterling with a mounted peridot. It's solid! You can wrench on your bike and not do anything to hurt this ring.




Rollie Ring
Back in the days before super light unobtanium metals were available, you hit the drill press. To lighten the bike you drilled away as much metal as you could to lighten the weight and raise the speed. Pretty soon, your whole bike looked a lot like this ring.

A couple of days. Choose the style without a size in the listing and when you buy it, put your size in the notes.

Between the site, work and the bike build I've pretty much fallen off the earth. Thought I'd share all the same.

Some new rings I'm doing. They're going up on Scout Mob in a couple weeks. I really dig 'em and thought I'd share in my quest to make kick ass accessories that aren't shitty same ole, same ole.
