I love carving flowy convoluted designs and these were no exception. They are 14K white gold bands carved with a twisting old oak tree.
Her ring is swooped just so to fit against her sapphire engagement ring. The tree carving is over around 2/3 the surface of the band, the bottom smooth.
His ring is interesting in that it carved with two trees blending into each other at the top and bottom: Both bottoms originate at one end, then curve up their sides of the band, then the branches meet and mingle together at the top. The ring is more abstract or concrete depending upon the angle you choose to view.
More pics after the jump!
Okay, this shot totally makes me think of that scene in The Fabulous Baker Boys with Michelle Pfeifer singing on top of the paino. Yes. I am that old.
The sinewy and elegant oaks look like the illustrations from old fairy tale books. Love.
To whomever said that all of those doodles in your homework margins were a waste of time, I say: behold!
Matt – As you well know, my margin doodles were actually crap.
Raquel – Do you have the Brian Froud/Alan Lee Fairie book? The woman’s band is totally reminiscent of the Green Lady wrapped in the ivy vine. I didn’t even think of that until you mentioned old fairy books!
They weren’t crap. I’ll prove it by posting them all on Facebook.
