Mixed metals ring with a sparkling rose cut natural gemstone and hand hammered texture. The texture on the surface glints in the light, catching it from all angles, and the sides are left with their fused molten metal texture. The band is comfort fit.
These rings are created almost entirely without solder! After making 2 identical argentium silver bands, I fuse them together, then fuse solid 18K gold accents to the surface. The ethically sourced 3mm gemstone is then carefully fit into the handmade setting before hand hammering it in as well as the tiny texture. Fusing created super strong bonds with clean joins as well as a gorgeous subtle molten metal texture. It also activates the tarnish resistant qualities of argentium silver, creating a bright white layer of natural tarnish resistance on the surface. Each ring is unique, with the details created by the making process.
Several Rings are shown in the photo, this listing is for the Ethiopian Opal ring at the top of the stack.
