I made these beauties for some lovely customers who are tying the knot next month. They specifically wanted ethical, eco-conscious wedding rings, and to have them personalised, unique and totally special to them. I hand stamped each ring prior to soldereding them - I love the clean, sharp look of the letters. I have simply given them a light polish by hand, keeping a warm soft shine to the silver. They are hand profiled - the larger one is 7mm thick, I have formed the D-shape myself, for a lovely organic feel. The narrower one is 5mm, and again, I formed the D-profile by hand.
I am still enjoying using the lovely "Harmony Metals" 100% recycled silver stock from Hoover and Strong - their customer service is amazing, and their delivery time is good. It's lovely silver to work, and is available in so many different shapes, everything I could wish for. The only problem remaining, is to find chains for my pendants in recycled silver, other than that Glasswing is well on the way to turning over completely to recyled silver in the near future.
