Baby rattle 925 silver ladybug — ring shape with disc

A ladybug made of 925 sterling silver, whose spots are not painted on, but crafted into the surface: round, raised hemispheres on its arched back, large enough for a baby's hand to feel. Beneath this sits the head with its antennae, sculpted in three dimensions. The beetle hangs from a closed silver ring.

When the motif itself is the function

With this piece, image and purpose coincide: the ladybug’s spots are simultaneously the tactile hemispheres of the tactile manufacturing series. Roundly sanded, high-gloss polished, distinctly raised — what is a beetle’s back to the eye becomes a little landscape for the fingertip. Unlike with the bunny, pony, and bird, the nubs here are not placed around the motif, but are the motif itself.

A lucky charm without the kitsch

The ladybug stands for luck, in half of Europe alike. Given at birth, it says what everyone is thinking anyway, without anyone needing to say it out loud. It manages without pink or blue, making it suitable for both girls and boys. At 29 grams, it is one of the heavier pieces in this ring-form series.

A unique shape, not a disc twin

Unlike the bunny, pony, and bird, which sit on the same flower-shaped disc, the ladybug is crafted as an independent figure. What connects the three disc motifs and the beetle is solely the tactile relief — serving as the fourth rattle in this series that is meant to be felt rather than just looked at.

Where the ladybug comes from

This rattle comes to us directly from ArgentA in Russia, without any middlemen — an exception in a market otherwise dominated by Italian goods in Europe. It comes in a "Royal Childhood" gift box, yellow-orange with a crown and tree of life; should the light-colored box of the tactile series be used instead, it does not change the value or content.

Ring form, handle form, or acrylic ring

If you want an engraving on the silver, a smooth handle rattle from our rattle collection is the right way to go; within the ring-form family, only the heart is suitable. As soon as teeth begin to break through, a model with a pearl-white acrylic ring takes over.

Care

On the round spots, tarnishing appears first in the small depressions between them — normal for sterling silver. A soft polishing cloth is enough for the hemispheres; gentle rubbing is sufficient for the fine gaps. In children's hands, the beetle should only be used under supervision.

Frequently asked questions about the ladybug ring rattle

Are the spots really meant for tactile exploration?
Yes, they are the tactile hemispheres of the tactile manufacturing series — here, motif and function coincide.

Can the ladybug be engraved?
No, the head and back are fully sculpted, so there is no flat surface. Anyone wishing to have something engraved should choose the heart.

How can I add a name anyway?
The SilberVerse card takes on this role — free of charge upon request, regardless of the silver piece itself.

Is it a teething ring?
No, the ladybug is made entirely of silver and is not a teething element for the teething period.

Why does it weigh more than some other motifs?
At 29 grams, the fully sculpted form contains more silver than, for example, the car or the teddy bear.
