It seems like the past week has been all about rings! I've finished several new rings, all wildly different from each other, and each one extremely satisfying!
a very cool bumpy pearl on a simple sterling band
freeform pearl and rose cut diamond in sterling and 18kt and 14kt gold. These rose cut diamonds are my new love. And I just purchased a new parcel of various sizes and colors I can't wait to get into...
malachite and stick pearl in sterling with 14kt gold
and today I finished this pretty little fossil coral ring in sterling with 14kt gold rivets
My next project is in the works. Moving away from rings for a bit and concentrating on combining various elements in a necklace for David Frank Gallery. Depending on how it comes out, I'd like to do more and perhaps utilize some of those diamonds in the design.
Here I'm using rose cut tourmalines, peridot, ocean jasper and freshwater pearls. Still a bit to work out... I'll be posting it when it's done though!
Beautiful, Betsy! I really like the first ring...and the little glimpses of your animal friends.
ReplyDeleteThey all look so awesome! If I could afford it, I'd buy every one of them. :)
ReplyDeletethanks, Lois, I love pearls with personality!
ReplyDeleteKristy, I'm sure we will be trading again... You know I love your pots!
