★★★★★ 4.9/5 from 412 verified Australian reviews ▶ “A game changer for ADHDers” — Emma

For the woman who holds it all together

You were never “just anxious.”
You were undiagnosed.

Elegant sterling silver rings designed to calm your hands and mind. Science-backed. Discreet. Australian owned.

Your path to calm starts here. Fidgeting isn't just a habit - it's backed by neuroscience to reduce stress and anxiety.

  • Fidgeting helps to manage and regulate ADHD symptoms and anxiety.
  • Science-backed benefits of fidgeting: boosts dopamine, sharpens focus and reduces overwhelm via brain’s prefrontal cortex activation.
  • Children are given fidgets as tools to regulate their ADHD symptoms and anxiety.
  • What happens when they become adults? Those tools are taken away then as adults, our anxiety manifests in other ways to cope.
  • Our fidget rings are uniquely designed tools to manage anxiety and can be worn with any outfit.

Social impact

  • We've donated $850 to Beyond Blue.

  • We've donated approximately $1800 of our products to young people at risk of mental health crisis through the Salvation Army.
  • Whilst navigating our son’s neurodivergence and ensuring that he is ready for school, we saw an underwhelming amount of (free) neurodivergent focused resources available in the community so we started creating our own. You can find more of our free anxiety resources including our social story templates here.

Anti tarnish and water resistant sterling silver

We are the only Australian online stockist of only 925 sterling silver base anxiety jewellery - which means lasting quality, does not tarnish and is water resistant.

7 reasons to choose 925 Sterling silver

1. Durability: Sterling silver is known for its robustness and durability. It is less prone to scratches and damage compared to costume jewellery (made of copper or brass). Sterling silver can last for generations if properly maintained.

2. Hypoallergenic: For those with sensitive skin or allergies, sterling silver is a safe choice. It is less likely to trigger skin reactions compared to lower-quality metals often found in cheaper brass and copper jewellery.

3. Affordability: Sterling silver offers high-quality jewellery at a more affordable price point compared to solid gold. It allows you to own a precious metal piece without breaking your budget.

4. Versatility: Sterling silver has a neutral shade that matches well with most outfits and other pieces of jewellery. It can be worn for both casual and formal occasions, unlike solid gold which is often limited to formal events.

5. Maintainability: While sterling silver does tarnish over time, it is simple to clean and restore its original shine using readily available silver cleaning solutions or a polishing cloth. Costume jewellery, on the other hand, tends to lose its shine and look worn-out over time and you need to throw it out. 

6. Wide Variety: Sterling silver jewellery allows us to design a wide range of styles, giving you a broader choice range. You can easily find a piece that expresses your personal style compared to the often more traditional and limited designs in solid gold.

7. Value: Lastly, sterling silver still holds considerable value, unlike costume jewelry which generally has no resale value. It doesn't match solid gold's value but is still a precious metal you can consider as an investment.

Always check the materials when purchasing jewellery online - if it doesn’t state what materials the jewellery is made of, it’s likely to be copper or brass (usually costume jewellery that will rust and tarnish).

Unlike other cheaper rings (anxiety rings, worry rings, fidget rings, meditation rings, or spinner rings) in the online market, Subtly Anxious® rings are crafted from high quality 18k gold, white gold and rose gold plated all on s925 sterling silver (many anxiety rings are plated in gold and nickel-free and chromium-free, but made of copper or stainless steel).

All of our anxiety rings are hypoallergenic and water-resistant so won’t cause skin reactions for those with sensitive skin.

Elegance does not mean bling and flashy. Elegance means quiet luxury - high quality and lasting. This is why all of our rings have a base metal of 925 sterling silver or premium stainless steel. 

When purchasing jewellery online, always check and see the material of the base metal. If it doesn’t tell you, it’s probably copper, brass or steel. 

Our ring designs are curated or designed to incorporate elegance and timeless pieces - you won’t see some of our designs anywhere else because they are unique. That is until Temu tries to copy us (again!).
