order from a customer #1

I got this special order from one of my customer.
He gave me 2 rings setting with stones, one is Blue Topaz and the other is Pale Lilac Jade.

He wants a totally different look and design from the normal type of rings out there..
so i designed these 2 rings for him.

This customer of mine, wanted the rings to be chunky.
I designed and produced the rings into 2 different type of feelings.


Pale Lilac Jade is a delicate stone.
It has a hardness of 6.5-7.
(it must be handle with care as it would crack easily).
I designed a rectangular casing type of setting for the stone.
As for ring shank, it's twisted so as to create a thickness and contrast to the ring.

Blue Topaz is a pale sky-blue colour stone.
It has a hardness of 8.
Blue topaz usually wholly or almost free from inclusions.
I designed a square box setting for the stone.
The checkers effect is created, at an almost melting stage of the silver, with a piece of wire gauze underneath.
And it is then soldered onto the twisted ring shank.
I wanted to create an exclusive jewelry piece, which attracts people's attention without being a show-off.
