Bleeding Heart Souvenir Ring
Are you a sentimental soul? This hand carved ring features imagery that is symbolic of love and death. A brass dagger stabbed through a heart, surrounded by decorative roses and a sterling silver pattern. The Bleeding Heart or ancient "wounded heart" indicates wanting and love, as if Cupid's arrows were shot directly through your heart. And what is love without the joy and pain of life and death, represented with the skull and crossbones. "You will die," it says, "so live life to its fullest." And the hourglass that represents time is of the essence.
History of the Mexican Biker Ring
Known as a Mexican Biker Ring or Souvenir Ring, these rings were popular after the Mexican Civil War when the currency plummeted and the Peso was almost valueless. Jewelers melted the coins down and crafted rings that tourists from America would buy as souvenirs. Biker gangs in border towns would buy these rings in lieu of the illegal Knuckle Dusters aka brass knuckles. These souvenir rings became a legendary style.
The face and side accents of the ring are made from brass. The body of the ring is made from solid silver. The ring is on the large side, approximately 1 inch x 3/4 inch and has a nice weight to it.
Made from Sterling Silver and Brass
Ring Sizing
We want to make sure you have the best fit. To find out your ring size, you'll want to measure the finger on which you'll be wearing the ring. Your future ring should fit your finger comfortably; snug enough so that it will not fall off, but loose enough to slide over your knuckle with some resistance.

Tips:
~Perform this measurement exercise when you are neither hot or cold. When your body is cold your fingers can shrink in size and when you are hot, your fingers will swell in size.
~The most commonly purchased women’s ring size for Women range between size 5 to 7. Size 6 is our most popular ring size. The most commonly purchased men’s ring size, range from size 9 to 11. Size 10 is our most popular men's ring size.

Bracelet & Cuff Sizing
We want to make sure you have the best fit. To find out your best bracelet or cuff size, you'll want to measure your wrist.

Extra Small | 6 inches |
Small Bracelet | 7 inches |
Medium Bracelet | 7 3/4 inches |

Note ~ It is possible to manipulate the size of All Cuffs once purchased by a small margin: simply give the cuff a squeeze on the sides (to make smaller) or a pull on the sides (to make larger). This is suggested as a small alteration technique for the wearer to fine-tune the fit and should only be done once or twice, so as to not stress the metal where the bending takes place.
