Description

These vintage stones are slices of soapstone that have been put together somehow. It is quite solid and just lovely. I have a couple of different ones in other shapes.

It is yellow, blue, green, purple and red. I made the ring for it from 925 sterling silver. The band is wide and sturdy because this is a big ring. It is over 1.25 inches across!

I have had these wonderful old stones for years. I just wanted to do something really special with them. I left this round one on my bench for about 3 weeks before deciding that it was just best to leave the setting plain and let the stone speak for itself.

This is size 7.5 (7 1/2) Probably about an O 1/2 or maybe a P.
I have another similar stone (each is different in size/shape and layering but all are from the same color set) I can make one in your size if you like.

Thank you for looking at my fun ring.

Please convo anytime.

Most everything I make is done with reclaimed, recovered, recycled silver. I just feel silly even mentioning it. A bunch of it is from old silverware that was eaten by the disposal or maybe a lawn mower??? who knows. I buy it for the going price of silver and the gent who finds it for me gets a good deal while I am delighted that I don't have to go look for it at sales and such in the Texas heat! Everybody wins. I buy my wire from a place that refines and mills it from reclaimed silver. They also give all their shavings and scrap to third world artists who would otherwise not be able to silversmith. If I have scrap (right down to the dust from cutting or sanding silver) they will take it and refine it for these artists. Again, everybody wins. :)
