Fangface

6.5

It is suspected that W.Y.V.E.R.N. used alien DNA in the creation of Fangface, and possibly alien technology as well. What we know for certain is that nobody has ever survived a bite from those fangs. He is the piece people reach for when they want a sterling silver skull ring that does not look like every other skull ring in the case.

Rings — Wrap a strip of paper around the base of your finger, mark where it overlaps, then measure that length in millimetres and compare it against a ring size chart. Any jeweller can also size you in a minute. If you fall between sizes, go up.

Bracelets — Measure around your wrist just below the wrist bone. S suits smaller wrists, M sits in between, and L suits larger ones. The sizes scale in thickness as well as length, so the piece stays in proportion.

Necklaces — 18in sits around the collarbone on most people. 16in sits higher on the neck; 20in and 22in sit lower on the chest.

The full story

Product Details

In keeping with the personality of Fangface, the ring opens with a hinged top, much like the classic poison rings of the past. Lift the skull and there is a compartment underneath. It is a genuine working mechanism rather than a decorative seam, and it is the detail that makes people ask to hold it. The fangs, the ridged brow and the hollow eye sockets are carved rather than stamped, so the ring keeps its bite from every angle.

Materials and Finish

Every Monkey Wrench ring is cast in solid sterling silver, not plated and not filled, then finished by hand with a patina that sinks into the undercuts and throws the detail into relief. The high points stay bright, the recesses stay dark, and the sculpt reads clearly from across a room. Because that patina is worked by hand, no two rings come out identical.

Sizing and Fit

Offered in full and half sizes from 6.5 through 13.5, so it fits the finger you actually want it on rather than the one that happens to work. If you are between sizes or buying a gift, the What's my size? guide on this page walks through measuring at home with a strip of paper and a ruler.

Made to Order

Nothing here sits in a warehouse waiting for an order. Each piece is cast, finished and inspected after you buy it, which usually takes two to six weeks depending on the queue and how involved the piece is. That wait is the whole point: what arrives was made for you, in your size, by the same hands that sculpted the original.
