Notes from the Bench — March, 2025

Maker's Perspective

This is one of my favorite combinations for a bold, classic look. I’ve always felt that the warm, fiery tones of Santos Rosewood—with those deep black streaks and rich reds—demand a metal that can hold its own. Pairing it with Yellow Gold creates a glow that feels like sunlight hitting the forest floor.

We’ve shaped this with a traditional softly rounded exterior and a comfort-fit interior, designed to sit naturally on your hand. At 8mm wide, it’s a substantial piece that carries a lot of presence, showcasing the continuous grain of our bentwood inlay.

    The Northwood Difference

    HAND-PICKED SAMPLES

    We want you to have full confidence in your choice. On request, we will prepare a pack containing a ring sizer and up to five wood examples pulled from our collection. It allows you to see the warmth and texture of the materials before your ring is made.

    Free within the UK, or for the cost of shipping elsewhere.

    HONEST ADVICE

    Our priority is matching you with the right ring, rather than simply making a sale. We offer straightforward, expert advice to ensure your choice suits your lifestyle. We want you to be happy with your ring for years to come, so we will always be honest about what works best for you.

    BESPOKE MATERIALS

    Every ring is handcrafted to order, which gives us the freedom to make it yours. If you have a specific wood species in mind or a custom inlay material you’d like us to use, we will always do our best to incorporate it into your design.

    Why Bentwood Is Better


    Most wooden rings are cut across the grain, making them brittle. We use a heritage "Bentwood" technique—steaming and hand-wrapping a single continuous strip of wood for unparalleled strength. It’s a slower process, but it ensures your ring is as resilient as it is beautiful.
