Our Story

Built From Boards

Every ring starts with a skateboard that already lived a life — kicked, flipped, beaten, retired. We take what's left and make something worth wearing.

Where It Started

A Board, a Saw, and a Dumb Idea That Worked

It started in a garage in Tampa, Florida with a broken deck and a bandsaw. One cut across the nose of an old board hit something unexpected — seven layers of hard maple stacked with teal, red, and raw wood that looked like nothing else. A ring was the first thing that came to mind.

The board already had color, character, and history. We weren't adding anything — just cutting it differently. Bayshore Rings grew from that one cut. Small operation, coastal roots, made by hand.

The Material

Why Skateboards

A skateboard deck is seven layers of hard maple pressed under thousands of pounds of force. Between those plies are thin colored veneers — teal, red, black, natural — that vary by brand, era, and rider. Cut across the deck and those layers become the grain of the ring. No dye. No stain. No finish tricks. That's the actual board.

What We Stand For

Made Right. Every Time.

Real Recycled Jewelry

Every skateboard ring is made from a board that already existed. We don't source new wood — we make recycled jewelry from decks that have already lived a full life.

05

Small Batch Always

We don't run production lines. Rings are made in small batches, by hand, with attention to every single one. When a batch is gone, it's gone.

Tampa Jewelry, Made Right

Rooted in Tampa, Florida — shaped by the shore, the salt air, and a belief that Tampa jewelry worth wearing is worth slowing down to make.
