Pink tourmaline ring




I am quite pleased with the way this ring turned out.
The triangles were fused onto the ring shank before I formed it.

Hollow madness

I have the urge to make something hollow.Both the hollow pieces I have started to make in the last month have failed.

The first is a hollow ring I got this far then got a little frustrated when I couldnt fit the outer edge to the inner bit and I ended up flatting it with my hammer.







So I decided to make a pair of hollow earrings.
BUT....................

When I was polishing them one of the stones fell out and I cant find it. I have ordered a few more but I couldnt get the exact size so I might need to make another earring. The top stone is tube set and the bottom stone is flush set.
