Since our rings are handcrafted to order, it is important for you to use one of our ring sizers and not depend on a traditional jewelers’ sizing kit to get an accurate size. Our rings are different because many are wider than traditional bands and most of our rings come in a comfort fit style.
If you haven't used our ring sizing kit, select that option and we'll send a FREE ring sizing kit to you with your order. We will begin production on your ring once we have your correct size and width.
All rings are made to order and ship within the timeframe shown on the product page. We offer free US shipping and a 30-day return policy on non-custom items. Read our full return policy here.
The Story Behind This Ring
Dual Springfield 1903 Rifle Stock Wood
The 1903 Springfield Rifle was first used in the Philippine-American War, adopted for WWI, and carried through WWII. The walnut stock is one of the rarest materials we carry — authenticated by cartouche stamps and sourced carefully from verified pieces.
The Vanguard sets two inlays of this historic rifle stock wood into a classic gold band. No extra materials, no distractions. Just the wood and the gold, and everything that wood has been through.
Handcrafted to order in North Carolina from SCS-certified 100% recycled gold.

We had such a wonderful experience with Rustic and Main. The unboxing alone felt special—it came complete with a certificate of authenticity for the WWII M1 Garand Rifle Stock used in the inner inlay of my fiancé’s wedding ring. The craftsmanship was evident in every detail.
