Oyster Mushroom Ring | (Pleurotus citrinopileatus)
We cast home grown mushrooms into these rings, but the mushrooms don’t always cooperate. Casting mushrooms has proven to be a bit of a challenge, and we get better results when we cast large, mature mushrooms because their tissue is a bit stiffer.
So this ring was made by casting a large yellow oyster mushroom, using a 3D scanner to transfer its mushy goodness to the computer, and then sculpting and shrinking the design. The result has the best of both processes- an organic character that has been tweaked so that it is lightweight and comfortable to wear.
This ring has a slightly larger diameter and it sits flatter on the finger. To see the smaller and taller version click here: Oyster Mushroom Ring Small
Sterling silver, antiqued
Organic casting & 3D designed piece

Oyster mushrooms are typical shelf mushrooms. The business end of the species is underground, inside a tree, or otherwise not visible. Its mycelium does the work of finding food, and then produces mushrooms to spread its spores.
Their spores are released from the underside of the mushroom, from between the wavy gills. Oyster mushrooms in particular are known for having a copious amount of spores- somewhere in the millions for a single mushroom.
