Engagement Ring for Jackie
I was delighted to be asked to design and make a special ring as a gift to Jackie from her partner, which would not only commemorate their engagement, but could also be worn daily like a wedding band and always kept close.
I worked on building a simple form suited for daily wear, but with a little element of excitement to accompany the proposal. It consists of a smooth, plain surface on one side, and a decorative, jewelled surface on another. The plain side has a larger surface with a more gentle slope so that when worn, this side becomes more visible. The decorative side with its more acute angle becomes a little more hidden so that the sparkles are subtle.
The ring was forged and grain set with rubies.
I was so happy to receive a message from Jackie to tell me that she loves it and will treasure it for life! Congratulations Jackie and Shannon.
