Design
This is a unisex ring that sports a band that is made to look like a stairway with steps on each flank, style # 33 of our online design selection catalog. This bold style of band is a work of art by the metal file as well as other hand tools. The face of this style is flat and is very versatile as it can display a solitaire gemstone or an array of gems. The design of the face is built as a square so often a princess/square cut works well. The heavy band tapers towards the back and is quite comfortable.
Gemstone
The gem is a medium dark green Tourmaline from Brazil with no treatment. This is a faceted square cut 6.5 mm measuring 6.5×6.4×4.3 mm and weighing 1.46 carat. The clarity is eye clean.

Metal Content
We started this project by melting down fine silver and pure copper to create an ingot of 93% silver alloy. Consequentially our alloys are a little on the rich side of .925 Sterling. Copper alone is the remaining 7%. We do not add base metal in our alloy so there is less chance for any allergic reaction.
Our technique
All of our jewelry is made with the old fashioned hand hammered technique. We start by alloying an ingot then proceed with hammering, rolling, filing, sawing, soldering, drilling, sanding and polishing. We do not sell castings and never use glue in our heirloom quality jewelry.
Re-sizing or re-building to another size with the same gemstones is free!
Select the finished ring then select the size you want it to be by messaging about the new size right after or before you make the purchase. Re-sizing one of our rings can often be done quite easily by hammering and re-polishing when only increasing by a size or so and there will be no noticeable delay in the shipping time. When we need to have the size decreased at all or increased by more than about one size then I have to ask you to be patient as it will need to re-enter the queue and will be re-built shops and ready for shipping in about 14 days at no extra charge. Only a few designs may not qualify for a re-build with the exact same gemstones while most will, we will advise when necessary.
