Kwetu is an oval and marquise open brass ring — two complementary geometric faces, one oval and one marquise, sit on an open adjustable band in a clean asymmetric arrangement. Also described as an oval marquise ring or geometric open ring for women. Sand cast from recycled brass, using a technique that's been practiced for centuries — each ring comes out of the mold slightly its own.

Solid recycled brass, finished with a nano ceramic e-coat for superior durability and resistance to tarnishing, water, and sweat. The shield is invisible. The durability isn't.

Care & FAQ +

What's the metal?
Solid brass with a nano ceramic e-coat for protection. Genuine, not plated.

Will it tarnish?
Highly tarnish resistant. The nano ceramic e-coating shields the brass from air and moisture that cause oxidation.

Will it turn my finger green?
No. The e-coating creates a barrier between brass and skin, preventing discoloration — and makes the piece hypoallergenic and nickel free, safe for sensitive skin.

Is it waterproof?
Water resistant, not waterproof. Fine for daily wear and hand washing. Remove before swimming or soaking to protect the coating long-term.

What happens over time?
Over time, the coating may gradually wear thin — revealing the brass's own warm natural patina, a beautiful evolution that's unique to your piece. Prefer the original shine? A soft cloth polishes it back in seconds.
