El anillo "Mofongo" está inspirado en los anillos de nombre o "anillos de placa" (Nameplate Rings), que han sido populares en Puerto Rico desde la década de los 70. "Nameplate" es un estilo de joyería que generalmente lleva el nombre de la persona o una frase con que la persona se identifique.

Los anillos de nombre son una pieza de moda por excelencia que se atribuye a las estrellas más importantes de la salsa puertorriqueña como Héctor Lavoe, quien apareció en la portada de su álbum "De Ti Depende" (1976) luciendo con orgullo un anillo "Héctor" en el meñique.

Cada pieza se fabrica por encargo utilizando la antigua técnica de fundición "Cera Perdida". Por esa razón se le pide 1-2 semanas para la producción de su pieza.

Utilizo brass (latón) en mis diseños para ofrecer una opción en tono dorado más económica al oro, pero sin embargo en ocasiones notarás que tu joyería de brass (latón) tiende a adquirir una apariencia oscura y te puede manchar el dedo. Esto no es una reacción tóxica - es normal que el latón reaccione así con el cuerpo por la naturaleza del metal. El grado de oscurecimiento varía según el pH de tu cuerpo y varía de acuerdo a la persona. Para brillar tu joyería, todo pedido incluye un paño de pulir. Para combatir las manchas a la piel, puedes pintar la pieza adentro con esmalte de uña transparente.

The "Mofongo" ring is inspired by traditional Nameplate Rings, which have steadily been popular in Puerto Rico ever since the 1970s. Nameplate is a style of jewelry that usually bears the wearer's name, or a phrase that describes them.

Nameplate rings are a quintessential fashion piece that is attributed to Puerto Rico's biggest Salsa stars such as Hector Lavoe, who appeared on the cover of his 1976 album "De Ti Depende" proudly sporting an "Hector" pinky ring.

Each piece is made-to-order using the ancient “Lost Wax” casting technique. Please allow 1-2 weeks for production.

I use brass in my designs to offer a more affordable option to gold. At times, you will note that your brass jewelry tarnishes and may leave a dark mark on your finger. This is a normal reaction typical to brass and copper, and the degree of tarnishing varies depending on your body's pH. To polish your jewelry, all orders come with a polishing cloth. You can use clear nail polish to coat the inside of your ring to combat any stains on your finger.

Great...but could be a bit better
Style: 2-Speaker
Almost perfect. Easy to screw apart and insert wires to both the back and to the front, or do what I did and screw the wire onto the back and then use a banana plug for the front. My only complaints are that the back piece sits off the wall a little, so the plate doesn't fit flat and tight against the wall. It leave a little gap around the edges. The other complaint is that the back piece has some flex in it, which makes me nervous when I push plugs into and out of it. I think it probably will hold up fine, but it feels a little oogy to push banana plugs into it and see it flex. Comes with all the hardware needed. Just need a philips screwdriver and wire cutters and you're good to go. Super easy to use, and way better than the spring loaded connections it replaced.

Really good wall plates
Style: 1-Speaker
These plates came on time, packaged well and are "doing the trick". The plates, while fairly light-weight are perfect for my new system. They installed into the junction boxes very easily, hold the wires snugly and the banana plugs are perfect for my usage. If you need a nice, easy to install, good quality, wall plate, I would highly recommend these.
