Are you a socially responsible couple looking for an eco-conscious alternative for your wedding bands? Consider wood! Not only is it easy on your pockets but it’s easy on the environment too!
Make a bold statement with exquisite, sustainable wood rings designed by Chicago artist Gustav Reyes of Simply Wood Rings. These rings are hand crafted from a variety of salvaged woods that carry unique organic properties which add meaning to each piece.
Choose to have your rings made from a ancient Kauri tree, a sustainable bamboo plant, or even a musical instrument! To personalize it even more consider customizing your rings by using wood from an old family heirloom and commission a design it to fit your own style of love!

When I first read “wood rings” I didn’t know what to expect, but those are just beautiful!
I love the idea of incorporating materials from something with personal significance, too. Maybe I can have one made with a piece of an old snowboard!
We just wanted to say ‘Thank you’ from all of us at Simply Wood Rings for the posting. It is always nice to see people appreciate the meaning and significance of our work.
In response to the posting from Katie, we could certainly create a ring with a piece from your old snowboard. We are always looking for new materials to incorporate especially when they hold a special meaning to our customers.
Thank you again to everyone at Indie Bliss!
this is beautiful. truly magical. i love the idea
This is so cool. I am very anti-diamond (despite being fashion crazy!), and decided that when I get married there will be no rings involved. This totally makes me reconsider. Fantastic idea, guys!
They’re so nice, my fiance is interested in second one. I would love to get it for him but its just so expensive. I thought a wood ring would be cheaper than a pure metal. well hopefully I come into some kinda money soon.
Great product concept. Not so sure about the diamond, which is hardly what I’d call socially responsible. But the other rings are just gorgeous, especially the one with the knotwork in the middle. The jeweler I got my lady’s ring from uses reclaimed metal, which fits in with our site’s whole reduce/reuse/recycle ethos.
