Metamorphosis 46: Emerald and diamond ring

White gold ring with diamonds and emeralds!

I thought I would have this metamorphosis done by last fall, but here we are…in March! I just couldn't decide what to make.

Leanna has a beautiful collection of jewellery and certain pieces that she doesn't change often, so I wanted to make something unique but also that she could wear daily, and that also worked well with her daily pieces.

I intended on making a two-toned piece but ended up feeling that white gold was the way to go.

The ring is wide at the top but tapered in the back for comfort.

METAMORPHOSIS 25

Yellow Gold and Flush-Set Diamond Ring

It's been over a year since my last Metamorphosis! Back in November when I decided to start Metamorphosis again, I was excited. As my meeting with Sandy approached for #25, I started panicking. I forgot how nerve-racking this project can be!

Thankfully, Metamorphosis 25 came easy. Sandy had a lot of yellow gold and diamonds, and she wanted a new ring that would complement her wedding set. A lot of times, I've gone back and forth between designs. This time, I had a design in mind and it stuck. 

To make Sandy's ring, I started with a wax model. After it was casted, cleaned up, and polished, I sent it to the stone-setter who flush-set (aka gypsy-set) 15 diamonds.

I'm happy with how it turned out and  I think she is too!
