The right accessory takes any black outfit from plain to gothic, and a ring is always an eye-catching choice. Whether you wear them stacked on every finger or as a single statement piece, gothic rings express your dark style. If you’re looking for something a bit outside the usual coffins and bat wings, these unique rings are sure to elevate your goth aesthetic.
Black Goth Rings
A simple black ring can enhance your look by adding a focal point. This black titanium minimalist ring ($67) would be perfect for a corporate goth aesthetic, sleek and dark without any unnecessary adornment. For a truly unique piece, try a black leather ring like these ones ($14+) with added spikes for a gothic look with a punk edge. A rustic leather ring ($15) is also great for a medieval goth look, or any casual goth outfit.
A black stainless steel signet ring ($41) is perfectly sleek, good for wearing solo or pairing with more elaborate rings for an interesting contrast. For a more rough, industrial aesthetic, this black steel ring ($56) in a geometric diamond cut pattern is the one for you.
Silver Gothic Rings for Men
This distressed silver signet ring ($58) would fit a multitude of gothic looks with its abstract design and cool texture. If you prefer a more ornate, medieval-inspired feel, this sterling silver ring ($109) is reminiscent of a gothic cathedral.
For more explicitly goth designs, this handcrafted stackable silver ring ($98) featuring an abstract skull and demon motif is a unique piece that would match a casual goth outfit as well as a suit and tie–and it also comes in a gold finish. This dark silver skull jawbone ring ($50) is an interesting take on the skeleton aesthetic, and this ring featuring a design of skeleton lovers ($110) on the band is the perfect ode to dark romance.
If you prefer a dark statement piece, this silver signet ring ($159) is set with a large, flat onyx stone and decorated with a subtle sigil of Lucifer design on the sides and black Swarovski crystals. (It can also be cast in gold). Another awesome, unique statement ring is this Van Gogh smoking skeleton ring ($70)--you’ll be wowed by the attention to detail and artistry.
Goth Gold Rings
A gold memento mori ring ($526) is a reminder of the hourglass that hangs over us all. With its brutalist skeleton design and customizable ceramic background in a variety of colors, from black to crimson to turquoise, this morbid yet strangely charming ring is bound to become a favorite in your collection of oddities–and it’s free to get it engraved.
For a Victorian goth aesthetic, look no further than this ornate onyx ring ($155) decorated with gold scrollwork (this seller has a whole portfolio of breathtaking gothic rings). If your style is more occult, get in touch with the darkness with this handcrafted sigil of Lucifer ring ($341) in gold on a black background.
If you’re a Victor Frankenstein at heart (see what we did there?) you’ll love this anatomical heart ring ($180) made of silver with gold plated details. It’s also available in gold on black.
