This blog is designed to allow you to come along with me on my journey through developing my talent and style in the art of silversmithing. Along the way we will try out new techniques together, make some jewelry and have an awful lot of fun and you get to peek into the new life I have made in Florida.

Aquamarine Ring
Here is the usual process for creating a piece of jewelry, first the project starts a the bench where all the ideas, supplies are gathered. This ring will be done with a unfinished aquamarine set in it's natural state, that I purchased from a friend, I have used one of my own printed plates and textured the sterling silver sheet, now the ring shank is drawn , using the stone in the idea and placement and deciding how much room i will need to be able to use prongs on it to hold the stone in place stay with me as I go ahead and prepare to fabricate the ring.
