Wedgewood Rings has managed to create some truly spectacular and unique rings and keepsakes over the years, and this tradition continues through the introduction of a custom ring that features titanium from the iconic Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird spy plane.
The titanium outer band of the custom ring is drawn from the ejector nozzle of the Blackbird. It was obtained from retired Air Force machinist Dan Freeman who was responsible for maintaining and repairing the famous spy planes back when they were in use. The inner wood from the ring is made of teak reclaimed from the famous USS North Carolina ship.
These custom rings are beautiful to look at and pleasing to the touch, and will appeal to people who have an appreciation for military and aviation history.
