I bought a small piece of Damascus Stainless Steel a few days ago just to see how it would turn out before investing in more of the same pattern. I finished it today and it came out absolutely stunning, I cannot be more satisfied with the ring. The contrast of the orange stone against the Damascus is absolutely perfect.
The process I used to give the Damascus the tension it needed to keep the stone in place worked really well. I had quite a job getting that stone in, it will definitely not fall out. At some stage I wished I had more hands.
It is a small ring, size 6.5 but can be enlarged to a size 7.5. With the ring being so small gave me cramps in my hands when I was holding it while sanding, this stainless steel is tuff.
I gave it a deep etch. I am very satisfied with the end result. Who ever purchases this ring will be very satisfied. I can make the same ring in any size with any color CZ or diamond.
