Some rings I made the other day

These first two rings are made from the same cuttlebone cast strip of sterling silver, which was formed round and soldered. The insides are smoothed and are extremely comfortable. If you like the woodgrain look of these pieces, you should look at the work of Portland artist Jason Morrissey. The ring above was patinated to create more contrast.
This ring is composed of some random components I had in my tool box. I had this silver casting made from dripped injector wax and a small hollow band ring and I just soldered them together. I think it turned out pretty and nice, but I wouldn't wear it.

These rings are for sale at http://daedalsmith.etsy.com
