{"product_id":"hammered-black-ceramic-ring-with-vintage-62512","title":"Hammered Black Ceramic Ring with Vintage 'Funkite' Inlay","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a beautiful, handcrafted Artisan ring made in my small shop in Ottawa, Ontario, in Canada. This design is offered with a stunning and rare 'Funkite' vintage paint inlay in a hammered and brushed black comfort fit ceramic core. Funkite is a unique, man-made lapidary material consisting of accumulated layers of fluorescent paint overspray, much like \"Fordite\". It gets its name and psychedelic, UV-reactive properties from the vibrant paints used for Grateful Dead stage equipment, props, and outdoor art displays in the 1960s and 70s. The material originates from a facility in North Carolina. Because the layers of paint are baked and hardened over time, artisans and rockhounds can cut, shape, and polish this hardened \"paint slag\" into colorful, lightweight cabochons and unique jewelry pieces. It is particularly sought after because it fluoresces (and sometimes phosphoresces) brightly under black light, giving it a trippy, layered glow. Due to its relative rarity, rough pieces are primarily sold on specialized mineral and lapidary sites, while finished jewelry is popular on platforms like Etsy. US full and half ring sizes from 5 - 17 are available, in a width of 8mm. If you require a custom order at a different size, please send me a message and I will do my best to accommodate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNOTES:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShown in 8mm width comfort fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA luxurious, solid Walnut box with shop logo is available as a separate presentation upgrade here:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca title=\"Link to Walnut box\" href=\"https:\/\/dr-rings.ca\/products\/solid-black-walnut-ring-presentation-box-51836\"\u003ehttps:\/\/dr-rings.ca\/products\/solid-black-walnut-ring-presentation-box-51836\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product__description rte quick-add-hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRING CARE:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rings are all well stabilised, but it is advised to avoid prolonged submersion in water, such as for bathing, swimming, or doing dishes (particularly for the wood rings).
