Ancient Bog Oak is the oldest timber on the planet. Before petrification, timber goes through many stages; dying, falling, and drying. Before this ancient bog oak reached the "drying" stage, it was covered with lichen and moss to blot out the sun/elements and suspend it's return to the earth. It laid in a bog for around 6,000 years (it's patina is the darkest I've ever seen) and was discovered in the western Czech Republic after WW2.
All timber is sealed in a vacuum with marine grade epoxy to insure utmost strength and durability of a design. This ring consists of a sandblasted gunmetal dark gray Tungsten Carbide band with an ancient Bog Oak interior.
Specs: Band Width: 8 mm Band Thickness: Circa 1.8 mm Fit: Comfort fit
Materials: Tungsten Carbide, Ancient Bog Oak

The “ancient bog oak broke and came out of the interior of the ring literally on my wedding day as I was placing the wedding band on to my husbands finger this past Saturday June 6th on our wedding day. 😫😭
Although first ring received didn’t fit, it was quickly exchanged with professionalism. Love the unique look of the textured tungsten and, coupled with the bog wood, it’s definitely a conversation waiting to happen.
My husband wanted a ring that was unique and didn't look like every other ring, which is exactly what this is! It still looks very "manly," but it isn't the traditional solid black ring. It is hard to describe, but it is a mix of black, brown, and grey, with a really cool charcoal-looking finish. The oak on the inside is also such a unique touch. He loves it. The company also has amazing customer service and was very quick to fix a mistake on their end. I would highly recommend!
Highly recommend!!
My fiancé and I both love this ring! It’s manly and beautiful and exactly what we wanted. We originally ordered a size to small and exchanged for the corrected size for only a small restocking fee. Long story short we lost the original ring): Thorum customer service was so great at responding so quickly and shipping back to back was very fast. We are so grateful for the help and they were so nice!
Really like the look and feel of this ring. I lost my platinum band and this was a great replacement. It is unique. No one else can see the inner wood but I like wearing a piece of wood that is several thousand years old. Reminds me that in the big picture our life is brief.
Ring itself seems well made a has a nice feel to it. I was a bit disappointed at how dark the wood is, because it’s significantly darker than the stock photo, its actually black in color. But in the item description it does say its quite dark, so I cant say I was misled. The rubber ring replacement that comes with it was a size or two too large and slips off my finger without any friction or resistance but I bought the ring for the ring, not the rubber replacement. Overall I am happy with the ring
The ring was exactly what I was looking for. Great quality, comfortable on my finger and seamless service from picking it out to delivery. Very pleased with Thorum!
My Fiance loves the prehistoric oak ring! It’s sleek, earthy, and looks great on. The costumer service was a breeze when the first size wasn’t the right fit. We would recommend to any future groom!
Store owner replied:
Hi Emily, thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review. It looks like we responded to your original inquiry that same day as well as shipped out the correct ring - so it does look like this was taken care of.
We are so sorry for any troubles that you experienced and are always here to help if you need anything else. :)
We had to exchange the ring for a different size twice (due to mistakes on our part) and the process was smooth and easy. My fiance loves his ring!
My fiancé loves his ring. We ordered the ring sizer beforehand and the fit we went with was perfect. Good quality and fast delivery made this a great experience.
He loves it! Will note that the wood on the inside is darker than what is pictured on the website (this likely differs ring to ring), so there isn’t as much of a contrast between inside and outside. The exterior is a little shimmery.
I bought this ring to propose to my girlfriend. I haven’t done it yet, but I’m sure she’ll love it.
The unique materials and craftsmanship has already impressed me.
