Every spring, the tall, magenta flowers of fireweed sprawl across Wyoming hillsides.  By fall, the blooms take on a spindly, pale pink.  And when the wind blows, fireweed cotton fills the air with an autumn snow. 
 
The fall phase of the fireweed is what inspires this ring; a delicate hug that wraps around the finger the way the stems of the fireweed curl up on each other. 
 
Choose from hammered sterling silver or hammered gold fill, both with a beautiful matte finish. 
 
Note about materials:
 
With gold costing roughly 100 times more per ounce than silver, gold fill is an excellent option to get the look of gold with a more affordable price tag.  Gold fill is made by using heat and pressure to permanently bond a layer of 14-karat gold to a brass core, creating a tarnish-resistant surface.  The difference between gold plated and gold fill?  Gold fill has a layer of gold 100x thicker than gold plated, which means it won't rub off over time.
