This 'Fortress Wall' band ring by Independent Artisans is a bold and striking ring with a rugged, architectural feel. Designed by Angel Ortiz, this sterling silver ring is crafted from silver mined in Taxco, Mexico. The surface is covered with "brick-shaped motifs," giving it a strong, textured look. This piece reflects the artisan's deep connection to his Mexican culture and his ability to blend tradition with contemporary style.
Mexican jewelry designer Ángel Ortiz inherited his love of silver from his mother and has honed his craft since 1986, studying at UNAM’s School of Fine Art and working in the renowned silver city of Taxco. His designs draw inspiration from Mexican culture, nature, and the people he loves, blending traditional silversmithing with contemporary techniques. While silver remains his foundation, he also experiments with copper, tumbaga (a pre-Hispanic gold-copper alloy), alpaca, crystals, seeds, and leather. Today, Ortiz is dedicated to creating collections that raise awareness of endangered species, combining artistry with environmental advocacy. For him, jewelry is both a cultural legacy and a call to action. Living and working in Mexico City, he trains apprentices and cultivates a new generation of artisans, ensuring the craft endures. Passionate, reflective, and deeply committed to his community, Ortiz sees each piece as a balance between trend and tradition—a way to preserve Mexico’s artistic heritage while speaking to the future.
Handcrafted in 925 sterling silver, this band ring features a combination finish and measures 10 mm in width. For rings of this width, it's recommended to order one size larger than usual for a comfortable fit.
