Kimberwick
The Kimberwick Ring
Wide Statement Horsehair Band
Our widest band at 8.8mm, the Kimberwick is for those who want their horse to be seen. Horsehair wraps two-thirds of the way around the ring, creating a bold, eye-catching statement piece that's surprisingly comfortable for everyday wear.
What Makes It Special
✓ Bold width – 8.8mm wide (our widest band)
✓ Two-thirds coverage – Maximum horsehair visibility
✓ Comfortable profile – Under 2mm thick (won't feel bulky)
✓ Customizable – Choose your metal, finish, and add engraving
Design & Comfort
The Kimberwick makes a statement. At 8.8mm wide with horsehair wrapping two-thirds around the band, this is for equestrians who want their horse visible and celebrated. Despite the width, it sits under 2mm thick—comfortable for daily wear without feeling heavy.
Sizing Note: Wide bands fit tighter. Order a half size up from your regular ring size, or get sized with a wide band at your local jeweler for the perfect fit.
Available in sterling silver, 10k gold, 14k gold, and platinum.

Q: How do I collect and send my horsehair?
Full instructions are here: How It Works
Q: How do I find my ring size?
Verstara rings run true to size. For wide bands (8mm+), order a half size up from your usual ring size. If you don't know your size, any local jewelry store can size you with a 4mm band, or you can grab a reusable ring sizer from us. Once the hair is set, these rings aren't easy to resize — so it's worth getting this right upfront.
Q: How do I find my bracelet size?
Use a soft measuring tape or a piece of string around your wrist. Take that measurement and add ¾" to 1" — so a 6" wrist becomes a 6.75–7" bracelet. That's your finished length, hardware included. You can also just go with what feels right, or measure a bracelet you already love.
Q: How long does it take to receive my order?
Most horsehair pieces take 8 weeks. Everything is made to order — I don't keep blanks on hand. You'll get an email the moment your you check out and you can follow the process the entire way, and you're welcome to check in anytime.
Q: Can I have my piece made from more than one horse?
Yes — your whole herd can live in one piece. If you want the hair kept separate or arranged a certain way, just leave a note in the comments at checkout.
Q: What's the difference between the braid styles?
The fishtail is a flat braid. The round braid uses 4 plaits and has a tube shape. The square braid uses 8 plaits and has a box shape. The 5 strand braid uses 5 plaits and is flat.
The hair for most rings is woven, each strand is individually woven with other strands to create an incredibly strong and durable "ribbon"
Q: How do I care for my horsehair keepsake?
I wear mine every day, and I built these pieces to hold up to that. They can get wet — I'd just avoid swimming or showering in them. Treat it like your other fine jewelry, and it'll last a lifetime.
Q: What shipping company do you use?
Your finished piece will ship with either USPS, FedEx or UPS. Insurance to $100 is standard but additional insurance is available.
Q: Do you ship outside of the US?
Yes — worldwide. If you are shopping from outside of the US, please visit www.verstara.ca to place your order
