4 out of 5 starsIt's going to work for my intended purpose but if you were going to wear this everyday I would look at different options. The ring itself isn't anywhere near round, the 'S' shapes are very distorted and there are tool marks visible throughout the ring. The stone appears to be mounted well though, which was my biggest concern.

Custom made jewelry and hand engraving Since 1975

In 1974 I was privileged to go to South Africa. While I was there I went to the Diamond Mines, Gold Mines and the Diamonds cutters on different tours. I was so facinated with the Jewelry trade I could not think of anything else.
In 1975 I started to learn Silversmith from some good friends and after several years of making silver jewelry I went to work for a very good Goldsmith. I embarked on a 4 year apprenticeship with him. Two years ago year I went to GRS hand engraving school for a week and went again in September, 2012 with my wife by my side.
For many years I mostly worked in Diamonds, Gold and fine Gem Stones. The last few years I have started to sell online and Silver items have worked very well for me. I purchased a complete lapidary system last year and will be cutting many rocks and doing inlay work in the jewelry I make.
I hand fabricate, carve waxes and cast all of my own pieces. I also do a lot of fine jewelry repair for some of the local jewelry stores. I have well over 1000 molds from items I have made and pieces I wanted to reproduce.
I have a real love for knives and will be making and engraving more starting this year. I don't think I will retire until I can't do this anymore.
The name of the parent company is Golden Touch Enterprises.
