Our horn and wood inlay rings are crafted with the utmost attention to detail using only the finest music instrument grade wood and crosscut horn. Inlaid into a two-rail gold core, our rings are made exclusively from ethical sources of hard woods and horn, and without any joins, they are highly durable and long-lasting. All our wood and horn rings are coated with epoxy to protect against moisture.
The Greater Kudu
The grandeur of a mature bull kudu is best illustrated by its two-and-a-half impressive twists of horns. When straightened, these formidable horns can reach an average length of 120cm, but sometimes nature graces them with three full twists. The record-holder boasts an astonishing length of 187.64cm!
Kudus are renowned for their extraordinary senses, their unique escape style, marked by a rocking-horse running motion and a distinct hoarse alarm bark that echoes through the wilderness. The male kudu gracefully lays back its horns to navigate overhead obstacles, adding to its impressive escape tactics.
Camelthorn
Camelthorn wood, obtained from the Camelthorn shrub, is prized for its durability and resistance to rot and decay. Its light-brown to reddish-brown colour and uniform texture make it an attractive choice for woodworking projects. The wood is very strong and easy to turn. It is popular with knife makers in South Africa, and has been well accepted by international wood crafters for a range of wood turning applications.

Quality
Thanks to our innovative crafting technique, we have been able to create inlay rings with unmatched quality.
We achieve this by assembling the gold ring core around a solid piece of instrument-grade wood and solid crosscut horn inlay, resulting in a seamless finish.
This technique guarantees a durable and long-lasting product, free of any joins or weak points.
Warranty
Our Wood and horn Inlay Rings are naturally hard-wearing and made to be worn for years to come. We offer a one-year warranty on all our rings, so you can trust in the quality of our products.
Ring care
Here are some helpful tips to maintain your ring:
- Although your ring is water-resistant, it's best to remove it during activities such as bathing or handling water and solvents.
- Avoid exposing your ring to harsh chemicals, such as antibacterial wipes, cleaners, perfumes, and hair products, as these can discolour or warp the inlay.
- Keep your ring out of direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can cause fading and cracking.
- Before engaging in activities that involve heavy lifting or abrasives, remove your ring to prevent scratches or damage.
- If your ring gets wet, dry it immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water damage.
- If you find that your ring is too tight, don't force it off. Instead, run your hand under cold water and use soap or cooking oil to gently remove it.
Our inlay is a high quality product and with the proper care, will last you a very long time.
