Sterling silver snake ring and bracelet/bangle
Snake-themed jewelry looks great and will appeal to anyone who's drawn to the Gothic or unusual. Here are some fab sterling silver snake rings and bracelets you can buy online
The snake has a pretty bad rap in some quarters. In the book of Genesis, the snake was the animal that tempted Eve to eat the apple of the tree of knowledge, so ever since, snakes have been associated with deceit and trickery in Abrahamic religious teachings. But it's not all bad. Snakes are also associated with healing; Asclepius (a character from Greek mythology) became so skilled in healing/medicine that he was able to bring the dead to life, much to the gods' anger and disgust. Statues/pictures of Asclepius generally show him carrying a staff with a snake coiled around it, with the snake being said to represent rejuvenation and rebirth due to the fact that it sheds its skin every so often.
And if you were born in 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989 or 2001, it means you were born in the Chinese Year of the Snake. According to Chinese astrology, Snakes are mysterious, elegant and financially astute, and they also enjoy the finer things in life!Snake jewellery is therefore the ideal gift for anyone with the Snake as their Chinese zodiac sign. It will also appeal to anyone with Goth tendencies, or who just likes to wear something a bit different around their neck/arm or on their finger.

In this page, I've concentrated on sterling silver snake jewellery due to the fact that sterling silver is a precious metal (and will therefore hold its value), but is also within the reach of most pockets. Amazon.com has a range of snake rings in sterling silver, from the plain to the sparkly - have a look at the capsules down the right hand side of the page, and see if there's a snake ring to suit you or the person you're buying for. Some of the rings are made from recycled silver too, which is a great option to go for if you are after a piece of jewellery that that's been made with less damage to the environment.
Sterling silver snake rings
The great thing about snake rings is that they're often adjustable - the body of the snake just coils around your finger, leaving a gap in the middle so that the ring can be squeezed in or pulled out slightly as you need it! So the often thorny issue of knowing which size to buy can be avoided. But you can also buy non-adjustable snake rings as well - the chunkier and more bejewelled snake rings tend to be of this kind. Speaking of bejewelled rings, I was quite taken by ZilverZoom's black and silver pavé CZ-embellished ring, which would look fab worn in the evening as a cocktail ring against the backdrop of a simple black dress. NewOutlet's white CZ snake ring also stands out, but my favourite one of all in this style is Eve's Addiction black CZ ring - he's got a real look in his eye LOL. Note: since rings of this kind have quite thick bands, it's best to go a size bigger than your normal size.

Sterling silver snake poison rings
So-called "poison rings" are rings which contain a hidden compartment; they have been used throughout history to carry small amounts of toxic substances (whether for suicide or murder!), but also for more benign purposes such as carrying locks of hair or perfume. The two rings shown here are cleverly designed so that the "hidden compartment" is actually the snake's head - simply flick it open at the tongue end to reveal all!

Sterling silver snake bangle/bracelet
If you're looking for a bracelet rather than a ring, then The Silver Dragon's sterling silver snake bangle could be for you. It's designed to fit a standard woman's wrists, and is made in the USA from recycled silver. Allow 7-10 days for delivery. They also do a snake arm band which as the name suggests, is designed to fit your upper arms rather than your wrists. If you'd rather go for a bracelet with an actual fastening, then the company also makes a strap style bracelet too, which fastens securely via a clip.
