So here is the latest addition to my custom made family, this incredibly sparkly ring which features 54 single cut (an old style of cut, much nicer than the modern brilliant in my opinion) diamonds set in 18ct white gold and an unspecified carat of yellow gold, somewhere around 14 carat (due to the recycling of the yellow gold components which were mixed carats).
And here's a wee insight into the process of making this stunner...
the original rings supplied |
recycling the yellow gold |
that golden glow of hot metal |
laying out the diamonds on the discs to check sizing |
all constructed before final polishing and then ready for the diamond setter |
Beautiful!
