"Industrial" Sterling ring with 17 flush-set CZs. This was a learning piece, but I'm very happy with the way it came out. Spacing the stones equally around the ring's circumference was probably the trickiest part of the piece! I used a brushed finish to set off the sparkle of the CZs, with a highly polished edge.

I have since made many more rings in this and similar styles, with stones ranging from amethysts and garnets to sapphires.

Sterling silver, cubic zirconia.
