One of my top 5 favorite projects at school!

I loved setting this ring. It knew it was going to be a challenge as
the stones were to set in the curve, and the ring had a stair step
design to it that I would have to deal with setting the last stone.



It is a channel set with three different size stones. In the top pic
you can see how I placed the stones to find a even space between them.
We use a sticky wax for positioning the stones and for holding them in
place for marking where the burring is to be done.






The bottom pic is the completed ring. It is a 14kt. gold setting and
polished so very nice!
