This was an awesome ring to make. Raquel basically sent me a bunch of photos of things that she liked, a couple of stones, and let me go to town.
The stone we picked was a large, rough sapphire that Raquel personally plucked from the very dirt of Montana with her own two hands (!!!). It was huge and bumpy and quite unlike every other stone I had ever used. It also pretty much rocked (I know; slay me) and needed something unique to go with it. This is one of the most classic art-nouveau style rings perhaps I’ve ever carved.
Fairy iris: Raquel’s favorite flower.
My photos really don’t do this stone justice. It is mossy green with flecks of deep orange and gold through it.

I LOVE this.
I just wanted to tell you that I absolutely love my daughter’s ring. You did an amazing job! Someday I would love for you to make something for me! ~ Raquel’s mom
Hooray! It was a super fun one to make. I’m so happy with how it turned out 🙂
I think they call that a ‘master-piece.’
This ring is really breathtaking! I think it’s the most beautiful ring I’ve ever seen. Greetings from Poland!

That may be the most beautiful ring setting I have ever seen. Please tell me how much it would cost me to have my own!
I was searching for something completely different (images) and a picture of that ring came up and, WOW, totally had my attention. Just Gorgeous!!! Compliments to the creator and the wearer!
