Sweetgrass is a ceremonial herb used by North American Plains Indians and some Canadian Tribes. It is dried, braided, and burned while the smoke and sweet aroma is used to bless people and objects with a positive spirit. Also used in marriage ceremonies, a braid of sweetgrass is tied into a hoop with the couple holding it as they take their vows. It is symbolic of their joining as one in mind, body and spirit. Ring is crafted of sterling silver and signed.
BEAUTIFUL. I'd buy again in a second!Reviewed by Amalia, 2010-02-28
I saw this ring while wandering around Amazon one day and knew I
absolutely had to have it! I have hardly taken it off since it
arrived and I love it more every day; it is definitely staying in
my "permanent" collection. The band IS narrower than the pictures
would lead you to believe, but I heeded the warnings of other
reviewers who made the same complaint and ordered a size larger
than I normally wear. It fits just fine and so far has not turned
my finger green or done anything else strange. The detail is
beautiful and it's so affordable for its quality. I love the scent
of sweetgrass and use it when I smudge, but I (understandably)
cannot bring my materials to my dormroom with me, so the ring
serves as a pretty reminder.
On another note, I was also impressed with the speed of the
shipment. I think the ring arrived in my mailbox maybe three days
after I placed my order. In any event, it was waiting for me by the
end of the week, and I was so thrilled to get it! (And not just
because college students are desperate for any form of mail that's
not a bill.) ;) It also came in a little black bag for storage,
which was a pleasant surprise.
Really, I cannot say enough about this little ring. If you're still
hesitating - STOP. Take my word for it, it is so worth the pennies.

I love this ring. It was a gift from my husband, and I really like the look and the uniqueness of this ring. It is very sturdy and well crafted. I am very pleased with this purchase.
Great ring...butReviewed by J. Urban, 2009-12-20
I really liked this ring, but I should have ordered one size up from the one I did and it turned my finger green. It also would get caught on things. I wish that it had been all one small braid. On the positive side, I did get a lot of compliments on it.
Ring...Reviewed by C. Dastous, 2009-05-07
I bought this ring for my girlfriend as a gift. She loves the look of it. I thought it would be wider though. The problem though is that She's had it for only a day and it stained her finger green like copper does. She has a few other sterling silver rings and none of them stain her fingers colors.
very pleasedReviewed by M. E. Morris, 2009-02-28
I just received this ring and I am extremely pleased with it. Like the other comment said, I was expecting it to be a little wider but it's fine because it's a gorgeous ring. I can already tell it's going to become one of my "everyday" rings. I love the braided look. Very unique!
