Steel Horn Cowrie Cowry Ring

I took Steel wire, big buffalo horn disc and a cowrie shell and turned them into a ring. If your fingers swell I would not suggest wearing this ring as it does not have the give of precious metals.

The steel made up into a nice ring and takes a pretty good polish. I wanted to do some very large pieces and since I had these 2 inch horn discs it seemed the perfect opportunity. The shell is 7/8 of an inch. I made earrings and pendents with the horn discs. I will photograph them and get them posted.

Shell Into A Ring

Baby girl had found a shell and wanted it made into a ring. Here's the results with steel wire.

What have you made lately from a found object? Post your pics and tell what's in it.

Self Challenge Day III New Jade Adjustable Cabochon ring

Self Challenge Day III New Jade Adjustable Cabochon Ring in a very feminine green lettuce (?) color. I like New Jade because its so feminine even in a large stone.. New Jade is reasonably priced versus jade.  I will have to post that turquoise set tomorrow  I want to get it in natural sunlight so you can see the pretty shadings in the stone.

As always you can click on the the title to purchase.
