Sara's Garden

Textured and patina sterling silver ring made for my dearest friend for her birthday.
Made from 3 pieces of silver, a plate of silver is run through the mill with an old fashioned floral brass stencil then filed and shaped. A piece of thicker silver wire is soldered either side of the plate and then joined at both end and filed to look like a seemless border. The ring is then shaped round a mandrel.
After soldering, some final shaping and finishing. Then completed with a bleach patina.
Painted a presentation box with a pattern that mirrored the pattern on the ring.
