Build the rings first, then focus on settings, stone placement and final finishing.
Size the silver rings
Measure, cut and form the wire into three comfortable stacking bands.
Build a colour story
Select three semi-precious gemstones that work together in colour, scale and shape.
Create stone settings
Fabricate and attach a custom setting that holds each chosen gemstone securely.
