New Lander Turquoise Branch [OOAK]

This ring features a lovely stone, New Lander turquoise.  The stone is a 8mm round cabachon. It is set in sterling silver with a sterling silver branch band. The band was created using the ancient art of lost organic casting. In this process, the actual branch (named spice bush and native to Maryland) is cast and burnt out in the kiln. Molten sterling silver is poured into the flask and fills in the negative space. I perform all of these processes, by myself, in my studio. This ring is OOAK (one of a kind)
