The motion reads like a yin-yang diagram translated into silver. Nine grams of solid .925 sterling silver, 8mm wide, with each koi carved in enough detail that you can distinguish the scales from the fins without a loupe.

Look closely and you can follow one koi's body from head to tail before it hands off to the second fish — the eye keeps moving around the band the way the fish do. It's a subtle effect that makes the ring feel alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:1.05em; line-height:1.8; color:#2c2c2c; margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003eThe interior is polished smooth. At 9 grams, you'll stop noticing the weight within the first hour. Where the two koi meet, one fish's tail flows straight into the other's head — you have to look twice to spot the handoff.
