In almost every part of the world, the Dragonfly symbolizes change, transformation, adaptability, and self-realization (dragonflytransitions.com). Or choose a different symbol from the final image! ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ This dragonfly ring is created by hand from start to finish. The round disc is made of sterling silver PMC (.960) and each disc is created and formed by hand before I stamp the dragonfly onto the blank disc. Because I create each by hand, they may not be exactly as pictured, but each will have the unique and handmade quality and feel. The ring is made from a 16 gauge sterling silver band and soldered securely together for a strong and durable connection. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Shipping & Processing--> The processing speed varies depending on the item, please see speeds in the listing details for this item.
