Completion of a hand made masterpiece

A few weeks ago I introduced you to my masterpiece in the making and like many others I am sure you thought.. Hmmmm OK we will see as my "ring" lay as a flat piece of sterling silver with a few rough shapes cut into it.
Well...... After about 5 hours of hand sawing, filing, sanding, working with the blowtorch and thinking that this little piece of silver was going to have to be worn regarlessof how ameteur it looked I am VERy proud to show you my finished piece. This photo is a bit too close for my liking and you can see lots of imperfections but as a first creation I am pretty impressed and will be wearing it with pride!


I can't say however that you will be fining my own silver rings for sale just yet because with the hours that went into creating this it would have to be a 3 figure price tag and trust me although I am proud of my creation is is FAR from a 3 figure piece of jewellery..

Oh and don't you just love how the flash reflected the little star off the edge of it just to show you how much it sparkles!

Next assignment is a bangle... Watch this space!
