THE STORY OF THIS PIECE
The first form of the brand — and the form that began STRUGA’s central experiment: one form carried across different types of pieces, from a pendant to a carabiner. The aesthetic came from CNC-cut sheet material — sharp edges, even planes, recessed depth. It is the most widely represented form in the brand.

Signature Links V.2 is a chain-link ring in 925 sterling silver, made to order by STRUGA. It is an open ring: the band carries a deliberate gap and holds by grip, not by a closed circle. Prices start at $120 for size 16, and a ring takes about two weeks to make.
Where V.1 was a static line of links, V.2 is a chain that moves. Each link is designed in 3D and assembled with intentional looseness — the ring flexes, shifts, reacts to the hand. The Signature Asymmetric is STRUGA's first form, here taken from chains and bracelets and put back on the finger with more presence and more life in the metal. 925 silver, Living Silver finish.
For those who want jewelry to be felt, not only seen. Daily wear.
Material: 925 sterling silver, no rhodium plating.
Form: Signature Asymmetric, STRUGA's first form, from the world of CODEX.
Surface: Living Silver — the metal darkens on its own with air and skin; patina settling into the moving joints is a property, not a defect.
Character: 3D-modelled chain links, deliberately offset, so the ring flexes and shifts with the hand.
Care: return it to the light with a soft cloth or silver-cleaning solution; avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.
V.1 or V.2: which Signature Links ring to choose
Both versions carry the same form. The difference is how the links are cut and whether they move.
| Signature Links V.1 | Signature Links V.2 | |
|---|---|---|
| Links | Slim and open, drawn as one line | Faceted, denser, standing higher off the band |
| Movement | The line stays still | Links are offset, so the ring shifts with the hand |
| Weight, size 16 | 2.7 g | 2.1 g |
| Price from | $96 | $120 |
| Band | Open | Open |
| Sizes | 16–22 | 16–22 |
Take Signature Links V.1 for the flatter, quieter line. Take V.2 if you want the ring to be felt on the hand, not only seen.
Who wears it and when
The ring reads as an everyday object, not an occasion piece. At 2.1 grams in size 16 it is light enough that you stop noticing it by the middle of the day, and thin enough to sit beside a watch or another band. The open band gives it a little play, so it settles rather than grips — people who dislike the tight hold of a solid ring usually get on with this one. Worn alone it stays quiet. Worn with a chain or bracelet from the same family, it reads as part of one line rather than a separate object. It also works as a gift when you know the hand but not the exact size, because a size chosen one step small still goes on. For hands-on work — lifting, climbing, kitchen shifts — take it off: the links move, and moving parts collect whatever they are put through.
About STRUGA. STRUGA is a dark silver jewelry brand founded by Dmitry Strugovshchikov and Ekaterina Strugovshchikova, handcrafted in our Bali workshop by master silversmiths. Every piece is 925 sterling silver, left unplated so the metal darkens on its own; on part of the range the surface is blackened at the bench instead. The darkening is part of the design. It is a brutalist object that reacts and changes through contact with the environment and the wearer.

Ask a question →Frequently asked questions
How much does the ring weigh and how does it sit on the hand?
The ring is 2.1 grams of 925 sterling silver. It is light and you barely register its weight on the finger. The links are movable, so the ring flexes a little and shifts with your hand as you move.
How is V.2 different from V.1?
V.1 is a static line of links. V.2 is built with freedom: the links are 3D-modelled with an offset, and the ring moves on the finger. V.2 also looks the heavier of the two while weighing less — 2.1 grams against 2.7 in size 16. Both versions share the same form — Signature Asymmetric.
Is this an open ring, and how do I choose my size?
Yes. The band carries a deliberate gap and holds by grip, as all Signature Asymmetric link rings do. Measure the finger you intend to wear it on, and if you fall between two sizes, choose the smaller one — the open band means a size one step small still goes on and sits closer. If you already own a STRUGA ring that fits the way you like, write to us through Custom Order and we will match it.
Why does the silver darken, and how do I care for it?
The surface is Living Silver — 925 silver without rhodium plating. The ring arrives light and darkens with air and skin: the recesses of the relief darken, while friction lightens the raised edges. On the movable links the patina settles into the joints and reads clearly. This is a property, not a defect. You can return the metal to the light with care: a soft cloth or a silver-cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.
What is the Signature Asymmetric family?
Signature Asymmetric is STRUGA's first form, from the world of CODEX. Its aesthetic came out of CNC machining of sheet material: sharp edges, even planes, recessed cuts. The brand carries a single form through different objects — from a chain link and a clasp to this ring.
