Mr. Pitchford brought this drawing to us and wanted Dave to make this ring. This picture is how it all starts. He then carves a wax of the ring and then.......
|
We cast the wax in 14k white gold and get this rough casting.
|
We then set the diamonds into the rough casting and buff it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We then set the opals into the polished ring and we have a Finished 14k white gold mens ring with broad flash blue-green free form opals and channel set diamonds
