.925, copper, rutilated quartz, photo |
• soldering copper is different than soldering silver
• a wider band might have helped the huge stone sit on my finger better
• large quartz cabochons magnify anything that's under them - which is a great thing in this case. this photo was tiny.
• bead wire is fun to use
• when at first you don't succeed - try, try again!

That's gorgeous Lora! I too, love the magnifying quartz idea ... the twisty band is great and I love how you share so much about the process.
This is a beautiful ring Lora. It does everything right.
wonderful!
Sweet, Lora! Love how the quartz does that... and silver at $75 an ounce?? Maybe I should sit on the scrap I'm preparing to turn in... :)
