Octopus Tentacle Ring – Adjustable, Sterling Silver or Brass

Octopus ring: an adjustable octopus tentacle ring in sterling silver or brass. The octopus is one of the cleverest animals in the sea: it solves puzzles, opens jars and changes color in an instant. That makes it a symbol of intelligence, creativity and adaptability, of finding your way through any tight spot. A tentacle wrapped around the finger also says "I hold on to what I love," which is why so many couples choose it as a wedding band that is truly theirs. Wear it for the bold, curious, flexible person you are.

Who it's for: ocean lovers, divers, marine biology fans, and couples who want an alternative wedding band. A gift for weddings, anniversaries, birthdays or "just because".

The story behind it. An octopus has no bones, just muscle, instinct, and the ability to slip through any gap wider than its beak. That same boneless, wrap-around form inspired this octopus tentacle ring, its open shank curling around the finger the way a real tentacle curls around what it won't let go of. Equal parts avant-garde statement ring and alternative wedding band, it has become one of our most-loved pieces, and a favorite ocean lover gift as much as a ring for yourself.

Made for the beach. Solid 925 sterling silver is fine in salt water, so you can wear it surfing, swimming or diving. Any darkening polishes right off with a silver cloth. Solid brass is fine in salt water, so you can wear it surfing, swimming or diving. It holds up to salt and chlorine better than plated jewelry; just polish it now and then to keep its shine.

Frequently asked questions

What size should I order?
Choose your ring size, from 4 to 13 including half sizes, and we hand-shape the ring to fit before it ships. The open shank can be gently adjusted later too.

Is it real silver?
The sterling silver option is solid sterling silver. The yellow and white brass options are solid brass. None of them are plated.

Will brass turn my finger green?
Some people get a light green mark from brass. It washes right off and is harmless. Wiping the ring with a polishing cloth now and then keeps it bright.
