handmade Russian wedding rings in tri-color gold
(gold is recycled back to pure and sourced from a local refinery in Portland, Oregon)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This band will be hand forged from scratch -- not cast, punched out on a press, or forged with pre-formed stock -- in the time-honored tradition of ancient metalsmiths, an art now rarely practiced. It will be made to order; please check shipping for lead time. Click "+MORE" for specifications. Find information on sizing, hammering styles, etc. at ravensrefuge.com.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
14k gold -- any color combination
three interlocking low dome bands, each 4mm x 1.25mm
polished or satin finish (shown in polished)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Each of these individual rings will be hand forged from scratch, and then the three will be soldered together to form a thick ring that is sure to delight the person who likes to play with his or her rings! Each individual ring is 4mm x 1.25mm in dimension. The pictured rings are made of 14k gold, but the contrast among the three colors will be greater with 18k gold.
Dan will alloy three ingots of gold, pour them, handroll them and finish the rings to your preference. Because the metal is cold worked, handforged bands like this one are denser and stronger than bands that are cast.
This listing covers ring sizes up to 7. If your size falls outside of this range, please contact us for pricing.
