Swirly Wedding Band Variations II

And while I am working on a swirly wedding band for an etsy customer, I might as well post more pictures of additional modifications I have done. Shown here are three more versions, one involving a bezel set stone mounted on top of the band, with sapphires set in the swirls. As I keep receiving more request for customized versions of the swirly band, I will post pictures here!

Swirly Wedding Band Variations I

It's good to be back in blogging business after the summer break! One of my most popular items at the ADZIA etsy shop is this swirly, curly gold wedding band. I started out making the band in 14k white gold, but customers have increasingly been requesting their own custom version, which I think is really cool! Posted above are pictures of a few variations on my swirly wedding band.

Daisy Wedding Band - Spring has arrived!

Out of my latest projects, I have picked this fun and flowery daisy band, which is a re-creation of a vintage ring. My customer, Ms Awesome had some doubts as to what version of the band would be better. I could either cast the ring in white gold with yellow daisies, or a yellow gold band with white daisies. You can see renders of the inversion here, and judge for yourself which one works best. Ms Awesome choose white gold daisies set in a yellow band. She also decided to leave the diamond out of it. I feel that she has made the right choice. Big thanks to Ms Awesome for posting my designs on weddingbee.com.

Your Finger Print Band

From soul mates to fiancees, all would love the idea of wearing each other's finger print on each other's band. It is a unique way to keep your loved one close at hand. Always. And everywhere.

I can apply the thumb prints on both the inside and outside of your band. I am still experimenting with different finishes, such as additional engraving, oxidation, paint. Pictures of additional versions of my finger print bands will be posted here over the next couple of weeks.

Should you be interested to know how we can go about taking and applying your finger prints, as well as how much a set will cost, please contact me via email.

Tanzanite Aquamarine Ring I

Last month, I made an 18k white gold engagement ring with a tanzanite stone accompanied by two round aquamarines. It is a classic design with a fairly unusual combination of colors, violet and light blue. I apologize for the inferior quality of the pictures, as I did not have access to my usual camera and lighting set up.
