Jewelry: Men's Diamond Ring
43 kudoz

Men's Diamond Ring

Instructions

This is tough design to get balanced, but worth the effort in the end.

Difficulty:

Category: Jewelry

Type of item: Accessory

For: Men

Style: Classic, Formal / Bridal, Traditional


Materials

75inches 20ga gf square wire, 2ct diamond

What was your inspiration?

My Grandfather's diamond, and an old photograph from the 30's

What are you most proud of?

This particular ring came out balanced the first time - other attempts not so much :))

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Work very, very slowly and methodically. Once it's off-balance, you pretty much have to start over.

I love this design! Would love to try it "someday"! At this point it is very intimidating!

Thank you Donnie!! I'd like to write a tutorial for this (time permitting) but considering the way I write, It would probably end up at around 125 pages and 300 or 400 pics ;p

Thank you!!! A tutorial for this design is way down on my list - it uses a lot of wire, and is very advanced - I'll get to writing it eventually though :))

What a precious keepsake, I love the way the diamond is hugged by the wire.
