Two Foliage Rings with Labradorites
These rings were basically mammoth soldering jobs. I made a framework structure in silver wire, then decorated it with leaves and flowers. I only used hard solder. To achieve these, I cut some dies in mild steel and used these to stamp some three-dimensionality onto cut-out elements and melted blobs. It all took a while, but I think the results are worth it.

I can imagine how much work it was because I do jewellery by myself, too. This ring is really beautiful. I love the blue stone and the floral elements of the setting.
Thanks for kind words.
Great piece, hard work really does pay off!
Thank you for sharing your most wonderful pieces of art. I have a deep love of labradorite (I have one on right now) but the settings you made! Oh!! Thank you again.
