Is the Memento Mori signet ring solid silver?

The silver option is 925 sterling silver, which is a silver alloy rather than a plated finish. Gold plated, gold vermeil and solid 14K gold are the other choices. Plated and vermeil finishes wear over time.

Does this Memento Mori ring have a skull on it?

The title does not say, so check the product photos for the face. Other Memento Mori rings in the shop are titled as skull rings. Ask us on the product page if you want a particular motif.

How long does the Memento Mori sterling silver signet ring take to arrive?

Allow about 2 business days to make it once the design is approved, then 5 to 7 business days for delivery. Shipping is free and tracked, and US orders ship duties paid, so there is nothing to pay when it arrives.

Do I see a proof before the Memento Mori sterling silver signet ring is made?

Yes, for personalized work a digital design proof is sent for your approval, usually within 24 to 48 hours. Production starts only after you approve it, and you can ask for changes at the proof stage.
