Design

Here is a truly handmade designer ring with six gems accenting an infinity symbol made with ajoure work in our style # 511 of our online design selection catalog. Symbols of infinity are never ending and are timeless classics. Ajoure is the art of sawing away from a solid piece rather than adding and soldering in wire for ornamentation such as filigree. Since ajoure uses less solder than filigree it will naturally stay brighter and be a purer metal. The handsome gems are mounted with short prongs that ensures a solid mounting. The band is medium heavy built comfort style with a very mild taper.

Gemstones

The six gems are three 2.1 mm faceted rounds of natural pink Sapphire that have had heat only treatment and three 2.0 mm faceted rounds of Swiss Blue Topaz that are generally heated and irradiated for color enhancement. These bright gems are are all near VS eye clean clarity. Sapphire is the birthstone of September.

Weights and Measures

The weight of this well built, handcrafted ring is about 4.2 grams.

This hand crafted ring is a size 6 in the USA, inside diameter of 0.65 inches or 16.51mm, the inside circumference is 2.04 inches or 51.9mm, in the United Kingdom, Ireland Australia and New Zealand it is a size L½, in India, China and Japan it is a size 11, and in Switzerland it is a size 12.75.

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.

Re-sizing or re-building to another size with the same gemstones is free!

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 ready for shipping in about 14 days. Right after you make the purchase be sure to message me about the new size before I have a chance to ship.

Thailand’s Gem Markets

Being a gemologist in Thailand makes providing you with the right gemstones a snap. Furthermore, the gem markets here are nothing short of amazing! We shop in four different gem districts across the country and the variety is world class. Additionally, a precision gem cutter is working for our operation. Of course, we also source fine gemstone rough with our worldwide network of contacts in the mining business.

Since I love to travel and shop for gemstones, I do act as a buyer’s guide to the gem markets for any visitor that would like assistance. Often I can meet you at a gem market or even pick you up at the airport to get our adventure started.

Custom cut gemstones

An essential part of our service is custom gemstone cutting. You may supply rough stones for us to have precision faceted or cabbed into the shapes that you desire. In addition, many gemstones that are already native cut will be improved in clarity and light return by a new precision cut.

Custom orders on gemstone cutting are normally ready in just two weeks. Message me with details of your gemstone requirements. I will provide the address along with special instructions on shipping stones to us.
