Style Feature: Alligator Ring Jewelry by Spoonier

Vintage Alligator Souvenir Spoon Ring
  Over the past couple of years, one of our favorite patterns we have come across in vintage spoon patterns are the alligators! These reptilian spoon patterns are notable for their high level of detail both inside and outside of the rings, creating a really fun 3D effect. We love the animal spoon patterns in general because they are definitely some of the more unique jewelry items we have seen on the market. And so affordable considering what jewelry is going for these days. Check them out!   

  Recently we sent one of our gator rings over to our Etsy friend Bunny Meyer,( Grav3yardgirl) from Texas- check out her Vlogs (youtube channel) about everything cool in style from make up , clothes, to DIY crafts and of course- jewelry! She will be featuring a few of her favorite items from Spoonier in an upcoming "vidayo" of hers - so keep an eye on Grav3yardGirl's Vlogs and be entertained by the surely sassy satire about her Spoonier gifts! (She has an etsy shop too, click here to see! Follow her InstagramFacebook, and Twitter here.)

   Here are a few examples of our Alligator spoon rings available in our Etsy Store

As always, thank you for reading- and have a greeeeeeeaaat day!

New Features! More Options To Ensure a Very Happy Customer

What a difference!
     Hi all! Due to popular demand and many  questions on the matter, some of our options have expanded to deliver the highest quality spoon rings on the market. Here are some highlights of the new features in our store to ensure that your ring is just right for you or that special someone, including new Polished finish, leather cords, and FREE re-sizing for life!**











"Finish" Options!: Polished versus Brushed
     When purchasing your items, you can now choose to have your ring brought to a shiny, high luster polish, or go with the matte brushed finish that is seen in all of our photography. Both look really nice when worn on the finger, and let the antiqued black look in the details really pop for vintage character. Some customers have requested to have the high polish, so we thought we would make it available on all our products!


The same ring has a whole new life to it~ 

Which one do you like? Let us know on facebook! 


 Can't decide? We can also use a polishing cloth for an "in between" look, where the high points are polished and the ring remains brushed finish!

**Hint: Clients usually decide on which finish to get by what look they want- if they want a more antique
looking piece, brush finish will have an "old timey" quality. But if the rest of the jewelry
you wear is polished silver, often the choice is polished to match the rest of your jewelry collection.


Pendants: Brown or Black Leather cords~

      Most of our photos in our store feature the pendants on a stainless steel chain. We recently added many cords to our collection, and you can choose between your choice of black or brown leather cords. If you would like a leather cord, simply mention in the NOTES FROM BUYER section upon checkout.

FREE Re-size for the life of the ring!  

       If you were on the fence about a ring because you know that your ring sizes have changed over the years, now you can send it back to us anytime for an adjustment to make sure it's snug for everyday wear. We want to ensure that your ring is wearable for the lifetime of the product! (*Shipping---we will pay for shipping the item BACK to you, but at this time cannot pay for shipping to Spoonier for sizing. )

Spiffy Notes and FAQ:

-How do I know what my exact ring size is? 

We still recommend going to a local jewelry store or goldsmith to get an exact ring size, which most will gladly do for FREE! But there are many ways of obtaining your rings size, feel free to message us on our Etsy store if you have questions.

HINT: To ensure a good fit, make sure to measure your finger from knuckle to knuckle and compare it with the amount of mm indicated in the ---specs--- location of our listings.
