Spinelli Kilcollin Rings: Linked Bands in 18K Yellow Gold

Spinelli Kilcollin Rings: Linked Bands in 18K Yellow Gold

Spinelli Kilcollin rings are built on one idea: separate bands joined by small connecting rings, starting with a hand-welded sterling silver Galaxy ring. I cover the brand's garage start in East Los Angeles in 2010 and the 18K yellow gold rings I would look at first.

Jewelry

The linked Galaxy ring is where this entire label started, born from Yves Spinelli wanting something to wear across multiple fingers and his father welding the first version by hand in sterling silver. Everything the brand makes still circles back to that one architectural idea of separate bands joined by small connecting rings.

Modular rings and sculptural earrings

Beyond the original linked rings, the label has stretched the same modular, connected logic into fuller pieces, still designed by Dwyer Kilcollin, who came to the brand from sculpture rather than traditional jewelry training. That art-world background is part of why the pieces read as wearable objects rather than conventional fine jewelry.

The signature ring, multiplied

Spinelli Kilcollin's origin story is unusually well documented and consistent across the founders' own accounts: a garage, a metalsmith father, and one ring that friends and strangers kept asking to buy. Fifteen years on, the brand has not strayed from that founding shape so much as multiplied it, which makes this edit a fairly safe bet for anyone who already likes the signature look, and a less obvious choice for someone hoping for real stylistic range. If you want to keep browsing, I also put together Spinelli Kilcollin Ring Dupe. For another take on Spinelli Kilcollin's linked rings, I would browse jewelry to mix into the stack.
