The Story
Roots are the structures of life, anchoring trees and plants into the earth and allowing them to nourish each other and themselves.
Your roots do the same - they connect you to your home, your family, your community, and even your journey, reminding you of where you started and where you are headed.
Celebrate your journey, milestones, and your connections by wrapping a WEND Roots ring around your finger. The Roots Collection is a daily reminder of your origins, your experiences, and what is yet to come.

Heritage Diamonds. These are earth-made diamonds collected from period and previously-owned jewelry from verified sources. Sizes are as close to the description as possible, of exceptional quality, and the exact details of your stone will be listed on your certificate of purchase. In the jewelry trade, these are known as "post-consumer recycled diamonds". Heritage literally means "something that is handed down from the past", and we honor that legacy by placing it in your modern heirloom.
Rustic Rose-Cut Diamonds. WEND's rose-cut diamonds are earth-made diamonds, and ours are usually mined in Australia or Canada. They are un-treated and un-heated, so they have beautiful inclusions revealing their amazing character.
Natural Rose-Cut Montana Sapphires. These stones are earth-made sapphires from the Sapphire Mountains of Rock Creek, Montana. These sapphires are certified at the highest Fair Trade level and are un-heated and un-treated. They range in gorgeous hues from grey to blue to teal, and they are the inspiration behind the colorful line in the WEND logo.
Lab-Created Diamonds. These diamonds are grown by applying extreme temperature and pressure to carbon in a sealed chamber over a period of time. Sometimes called above-ground diamonds, these stones have the same chemical composition, hardness, density, refractive index, and dispersion as a natural diamond. WEND sources lab diamonds from manufacturers in the USA and Europe to help ensure that human rights and environmental standards have been met.
Ring Size:
WEND rings are hand-crafted with texture all around the band. For that reason, they are extremely difficult, if not impossible, to re-size.
Some designs are more easily re-sized than others, but it is best for everyone if we are certain of your size before we make your ring.
For this reason, in many cases we cannot offer re-sizing of your ring.
How do we find your size?
- If you are in the Seattle area, we will size your finger together at our studio.
- For $5, we will mail you a sizing grid for you to test out at home.
- Visit two jewelry stores and ask for a complimentary sizing (happens all the time). If both stores size you the same, we can probably trust that outcome. If the two stores size you differently (hopefully they are close), go to a third store as a tiebreaker.
Necklace Size:
The necklaces in the WEND collection come in different lengths, which are noted in the descriptions. Necklaces 24" or longer do not have a clasp.
Why? Because they slide over your head. Clasps serve an important purpose, but if they are not needed, WEND doesn't use them.
Clasps can get caught in hair, they can come undone, and they can visually distract from the necklace.
