Gold Rings

The purpose of this blog is to discuss my current work and display photos in a non-formal way.

Lately I've been working on some new rings that I'm excited to get finished. I'm trying to offer more finishes and allow the buyers to customize their wedding bands if they please.



Here is a new chunky 14k yellow band that I've completed. I'd also like to make this in a 2mm thickness which I plan to do.



I just completed a little 18k wedding band for a customer who wanted a frosty looking finish. I'm hoping she'll be pleased with the results. Jewelers can get this kind of a texture from sandblasting a piece during the finishing process... but not being equipped with a sandblaster, I found another way to achieve this frosty look. I call it, appropriately, a 'frosted' finish.
