Contemporary Silver Wedding Band Set

I'm finally getting this contemporary wedding band set up for sale.


The center band is shown 'frosted' in this set... but it could also be hammered, satin, or highly polished.

Mokumé Gané Ring

This is the Mokumé Gané ring that I've anticipating making for so long now. It turned out better than I thought.

This ring sees some pretty intense heat to join all the elements together.

I've wanted to try to make one of these spinner rings for a while and last night I had some time so I went ahead and made one in copper. Twas much fun.


The ring did take longer to make than I anticipated. It is rather large at size 11 or 12... I'll make a smaller one next time.

Nickel Silver Band

The photos in this post show some of the different stages of a nickel silver ring I recently made for my wife. She likes darker colored white metals like white golds and stainless steel. Nickel silver also has this characteristic darker color. A lot of people have an allergic reaction to nickel against the skin so I don't offer any nickel items for sale unless it's a non-pendant guitar pick (and I only make nickel ones by request). The above photo shows the strip I cut out from a 1.29mm sheet of nickel silver. You can see where the strip was cut out by the reference arrows. As you can see, I label all nickel stock very clearly.



The strips' ends had to be trued and cleaned before soldering. This alloy generally doesn't create as strong of a solder seam as other alloys used in jewelry. After soldering, the ring is sized to just a tad smaller than her actual size. This leaves me room to file and polish (finish) the inside which will leave it the exact size desired.



Here, the outside of the band is filed and made uniform in preparation for the next step.



Though a little difficult to see in the photo... the outside of the band has been given a 'frosted' finish to compliment the highly polished outer bands the ring is about to receive.



The two outside bands are cut and polished. The sides of the ring are also trued and ready to be polished as well.



Here is the finished product. After all other steps are completed, the inside is filed, polished, and ready to be engraved and worn. The ring is shown next to the sheet that it was taken out of.

This ring is a personal favorite. It calls to mind ancient gold rings that were hand forged. I have therefore called it "Relic of Antiquity". They seem to be well liked thus far and I enjoy making them. The above picture displays the ring in rose gold but it could just as easily be made in yellow 18k, 22k, or even 24k which would be really cool.



This is a simple 10k yellow gold ring thats on sale in my Etsy Shop right now. I've lowered the price quite a bit in order to promote my shop. The finish shown is brushed but it could be made in a high gloss, hammered, or 'frosted' finish too.



Here is a lovely 14k White Gold band that's hand forged. It has a nice weight to it and can also be finished however the buyer pleases... Available in my Etsy Shop.


Here is a tiny stacking band made of a deep yellow 18k gold. The band has a 1mm width and looks best when several are worn at a time. Also available in my Etsy Shop.

Here's a copper cuff that I made about a year ago. It was hand stamped using stamps I created from steel rod.
