square ring continued:
square ring with asymmetric bezel setting (glass murrine) |
a clearer view of the murrina (and my weird fingers...) |
for once I managed to get the "925" sterling silver stamp level. I have a knack for messing it up, but not this time! |
2nd square ring in the making, still smudgy and firescaled after soldering |
you'd have to try it on to know how comfortable it wears! |

it's hip to be square
work in progress:
In between my busy college schedule I found some time to play with the square ring mandrel. I love working with the amorphous pebble shapes but I also like the orderliness of a (rounded) square.
It's also very comfortable to wear, because it follows the shape of your finger knuckles more naturally than a round ring.
To be continued!
