Artist's Comments

I apologize for the crummy picture!

Here's a ring I made in my class out of sterling. My first time setting a round stone in anything! I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. :)

This was created using the lost wax technique.
I first sculpted the sterling part out of wax and set the cubic zirconium stone in the wax. I attached a sprue, placed it in a small cannister and filled this with plaster. Then, presto, pour in some silver and you've got a rough ring! After some filing and sanding, I polished it and here it is! Hope you like it!

Please feel free to comment! =)

CZ stands for "Cubic Zirconium", the stone that I set in it. And yes, I have pretty soft hands cuz I've never done a day's work.... Haha, just kidding! ;) Thanks for the comment!
