A Capricorn and an Aquarius Walk into The Ring Bar...

If you know CMD, you know that rings are our bread and butter, and that The Ring Bar is the place where accessorizing dreams come to life. Picture this — in walks a Saturnine duo, alike yet different, and both on the hunt for their perfect ring match. One, a Capricorn, strides in with quiet confidence and eyes scanning for the perfect foundation piece of armor. The other, an Aquarius, flits past some of the more basic designs, searching for something with a more unconventional sparkle to match the free spirit they are at heart. Luckily, I have something fresh off the bench for both…

Meet The Capricorn and Aquarius Rings!

The Capricorn Ring

Capricorn embodies the acorn's journey to the oak. Steady and determined, they seek a ring that reflects their unwavering ambition and grounded nature. Our newest design, The Capricorn Ring, is CMD’s earthiest statement piece yet. Featuring a large, bezel-set Tourmalinated Quartz that quietly draws admiration, this is the first time CMD has ventured beyond lab-grown diamonds — a bold step for a bold sign. Tourmalinated Quartz serves as a striking centerpiece, grounding the wearer in their determination and highlighting their steady resolve. This is a ring that whispers of ambition but makes a statement, standing strong as a foundation piece for any collection. It’s a symbol of discipline and focus, the perfect companion on a Capricorn’s ascent to greatness.

The Aquarius Ring

An air of innovation swirls around Aquarius. This sign defies all labels, seeking a ring that reflects their unique and visionary perspective. Enter The Aquarius Ring, a wide rounded sterling silver band that brings that embodies the celestial spirit of this air sign. The surface of this half-round ring is customizable and adorned with an array of 1-12 diamonds scattered like stars in a night sky. You choose how many diamonds you’d like — but, keep in mind we can also add more later! This design captures the essence of Aquarius: futuristic, imaginative, and full of sparkle. The diamonds dance across the silver, creating a sense of cosmic wonder and celebration. Aquarius’s ability to dream beyond the present is their superpower, fueling progress and inspiring others to imagine a world without limits. This ring is a tribute to individuality and a reminder that the stars are never out of reach.

Two Rings, Two Journeys

Though drawn to different designs, both Capricorn and Aquarius find their perfect match at The Ring Bar. Capricorn discovers a grounding statement ring that symbolizes their inner strength and ambition, while Aquarius embraces a celestial band that mirrors their boundless creativity and forward-thinking spirit. Each ring, like its namesake sign, holds a unique power: Capricorn speaks of earthy determination, while Aquarius sparkles with cosmic potential.

But the story doesn’t end there. As they mingle amongst the twinkling displays, Capricorn and Aquarius might just find themselves drawn to each other. Opposites in many ways, yes, but perhaps their contrasting energies create a harmonious balance. Capricorn’s focus could ground Aquarius’s flights of fancy, while Aquarius’s visionary spirit could inspire Capricorn to dream even bigger. Who knows, they might even end up stacking their chosen rings together, forging a connection as unexpected and beautiful as the meeting of an earthbound acorn and a celestial diamond.

I invite you to come find YOUR personal magic at The Ring Bar! Book a time to build your dream stack with me virtually or in-person at The CMD Shop. I also host Open Studio Hours and Pop-Up Events throughout the month where you can drop in to play and build a set that speaks to you.

The Zodiac Series is a special Celestial Ring Bar. Like the new Capricorn and Aquarius designs, every ring in this collection is inspired by the unique traits of a zodiac sign. Try integrating your Sun sign into an existing set, or combine your "big three" to create a personalized stack as magical as you are. I’ve been loving the design challenge of slowing down and attempting to capture the unique spirit of each passing season in the form of metal. The Zodiac Series is a growing capsule collection that I’ve been slowly building over time, so if you don’t see your sign – it’s coming!
