Oval Dot Pattern Band - 4.7mm - Order in any size -14k, 18k, Fine Silver or Sterling
This is a 4.7 mm wide patterned band with ovals and heavy granules around a wavy center line.
This is a cast version of a fun wavy patterned band with ovals and larger granules I originally made in Fine silver using the process of Granulation. I then made a mold of that polished granulated original, pulled a wax copy of it, and then cast it using the lost wax process. I can size this to your specifications and cast in 14k, 18k or sterling silver. I am also happy to make a similar one to this pattern in original granulation for you in your size in either 18k gold or Fine Silver. These take much longer to make but the process and result are so lovely. Original granulated bands have a continuous pattern. In the cast rings, the pattern may no longer be continuous when the cast band is resized for you.
Granulation is an ancient fusing process utilized for thousands of years by the Etruscans and Mycenaeans as well as other cultures around the globe. I alloy 24k gold down to 18k gold and create tiny granules and sort them by size. Then I place these granules with a 000 paint brush and then carefully heat the piece using a mouth torch to the point of fusing. Each sphere is connected by a tangent of metal creating a sleek and beautiful surface, in this a case, a pattern made of slices from an oval ingot, a continuous meandering center line, and several sizes of my granules. I then make a mold and cut it for use, inject it with wax and use that wax copy to cast your ring! Then I clean it up and file it to shape and sand and polish and then add the dark patina and polish and clean and get it boxed and ready to ship out to you.
