Bit Band
Bit Band Horsehair Ring
Mixed Metal Bit Band
Two metals, one horse, endless possibilities. The Two-Tone Ring features your horse's tail hair woven into a band that pairs two precious metals—whether you choose contrasting tones for visual impact or matching metals for a sleek, unified look.
What Makes It Special
✓ Mixed metal design – Pair any two metals (or choose the same for a seamless finish)
✓ Fully customizable – Choose base metal, accent metal, and finish
✓ Symbolic design – Two metals coming together, like you and your horse
✓ Unique to you – No two rings are alike
Design & Comfort
The Bit Band Ring lets you create contrast or cohesion—your choice. Pair rose gold with white gold for warmth and shine, yellow gold with platinum for bold luxury, or keep both metals the same for a unified look. Your horse's tail hair is woven into the band, creating a piece that's as individual as your bond.
Available in sterling silver, 10k gold, 14k gold, and platinum (mix and match as you like).

Timeline: 4-6 weeks from when we receive your hair
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 ships via Canada Post. If you'd rather use a courier, you can select that at checkout.
Q: Do you ship outside Canada?
Yes — worldwide. If you are shopping from the US, please visit www.verstara.com to place your order
