6. Geometric Hexagon Ring Holder
For a modern, industrial, or minimalist aesthetic, a geometric hexagon ring holder is an excellent choice. This design moves away from soft, organic curves and embraces sharp, clean lines and architectural angles. Additionally, this project can feature a central, upright clay cone, which acts as a ring tree, allowing you to stack your rings vertically while storing smaller stud earrings or necklaces in the surrounding hexagonal base.
To achieve clean, sharp geometric lines, use a metal hexagon cookie cutter or print out a precise geometric template to cut your clay slab. To make the central ring cone, roll a small piece of clay into a neat cone shape, ensuring the base is flat. Score the bottom of the cone and the center of your hexagonal dish, apply a drop of water, and press the cone firmly into the center of the dish, smoothing out the seam with a damp finger. Keep your lines as crisp as possible during the drying process. Once dry, you can paint the dish with bold geometric color blocks, or keep it ultra-minimalist with a solid monochromatic color scheme and a sleek matte sealant.
