The Story Behind Your Sterling Silver Kiwiana Ring
Welcome to a deeper look at the Squared Spiral Ring, a piece that combines authentic New Zealand design with the timeless quality of sterling silver. This isn’t just any ring; it’s a testament to fine craftsmanship and a celebration of kiwiana culture. The bold, spiral cut-out is inspired by the koru, a powerful Māori symbol that represents new life, new beginnings, growth, and peace. Wearing this ring is a way to carry a piece of Aotearoa’s unique heritage with you, wherever you go.
Our commitment to quality means this ring is made from genuine sterling silver and is stamped with the internationally recognized 92.5 mark. This stamp is your guarantee that the metal is 92.5% fine silver, mixed with a small amount of copper to provide the necessary hardness and durability. Unlike silver-plated jewellery, which is merely a thin coating over a base metal, our sterling silver is solid all the way through. This means your ring will not fade, and it can be polished for a brilliant, lasting shine.

Caring for your sterling silver ring is simple and ensures it remains a treasured part of your collection for years to come. We recommend a gentle rub with a silver polishing cloth to maintain its luster. While silver can naturally tarnish over time, it takes a while, especially for rings worn frequently. To protect your ring, avoid contact with harsh chemicals such as ammonia and alcohol. A crucial tip for any silver jewellery wearer in New Zealand: always remove your ring before entering natural geothermal hot pools, as the high sulfur content can cause immediate discolouration. Following these simple steps will keep your Kiwiana spiral ring looking its best, just like the day you first wore it.
