Our Workshop, Our Craft
Jewelry by Johan was founded in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 2008 with a simple conviction: that the materials of the natural world — meteorite, dinosaur bone, wood, and antler — belong in fine jewelry. What began as a single workshop has grown into a dedicated team of skilled craftsmen and bench jewelers, all working from our Minneapolis studio.
Deer antler rings represent everything we believe in. The antlers we use are naturally shed — collected after deer, elk, and moose drop them each season. No animals are harmed. Every piece of antler carries the texture, color, and character of the animal that grew it, shaped by years in the wild.
When you wear one of our antler rings, you're wearing something no factory could replicate. Our bench jewelers hand-finish every inlay, apply our proprietary Ring Armor protective coating for durability and water resistance, and offer free laser engraving up to 25 characters so your ring carries your story too.
Featured on Minnesota Bound TV
Jewelry by Johan has been featured on Minnesota Bound, the iconic outdoor lifestyle television program. It's a recognition that speaks directly to the hunters, anglers, and outdoor enthusiasts who are our community — people who understand that the wild deserves to be celebrated, not just visited.
What Makes Deer Antler Special
Naturally Shed
Deer, elk, and moose shed their antlers each year. We collect naturally shed antlers — no hunting, no harm. Every ring starts with ethically sourced material.
One of a Kind
No two antlers grow identically. The texture, color gradient, and porous pattern in your ring cannot be duplicated in any other piece — anywhere.
Ring Armor Coating
All antler rings receive our Ring Armor protective sealant — a clear coating that guards against moisture, daily wear, and UV exposure for lasting beauty.
Cannot Be Resized
Like all inlay rings, antler rings cannot be resized after crafting. We provide a detailed sizing guide and offer a custom ring sizer for $10 to ensure a perfect fit.
Elk & Moose Available
Larger antler comes from elk and moose — ideal for wider ring styles and sizes 11 and above. Ask about elk or moose antler when placing your order.
Trophy Antler Custom
Send us your own shed or trophy antler. Our craftsmen will craft it into a ring that carries the memory of your specific harvest or find.
