Well congratulations. It's a fun ring, with its offset labradorite(?) and still quite substantial despite your deprivations.
If you think about it, all one-offs have a learning curve and by definition don't come without trial and error.

[Ankolosova]

Thank you Dennis, it's actually with aquamarine. little present to my niece who got distinction in ocean studies at Uni graduation. So I thought Aquamarine would be best idea.

That's lovely, I like the offset bezel.

Interest out of the box style now we all want to see the earrings ( no pressure )

[CJ57]

I like offset or asymmetrical and it has a lovely finish. Well done

I really like it, nice work Anna :)

[Ankolosova]

Dear all thank you so much for feedback . I am going to try to finish earrings soon. Offset setting is a bit time consuming for me haha.....

[Ankolosova]

So i have finally made earrings done and ready to post all set to my niece!! As promised now showing my earrings with ring. One thing i have realised is that studs i have bought from cooksons are a bit too delicate for the earrig but will see how they will be worn.

Looking good Anna, have tomtest driven them yourself to see if the studs work ok, I tend to do that with everything I’m ake. Earrings are a problem for me as I don’t have pierced ears!

[Dennis]

Very nice, I hope you get a smiling selfie back.

If you mean the earring findings, theN I agree.

You might like to look at the heavier ones from Fischer: https://www.goldschmiedebedarf.de/search.php?queryFromSuggest=&goldschmiedebedarf_en=channel&query=earring+findings

Or these Argentium ones:https://www.argentiumguild.com/findings

But obviously they are much dearer. Dennis.

Ive given up on the sterling earring posts for heavier earrings and use white gold now.
More expensive of course but not too bad and so much stronger.

Hi Anna, have already admired these on Instagram but great to see more pics. I hope your niece loves the set as much as we do.

great results Anna - it is very addictive. I have been hooked for so long, even therapy wouldn't help now! Keep going, love your pics on instagram.

[Ankolosova]

Thank you all for feedback and especially for advise to look at different materials for studs. Definitely will look that way now... moving to the new projects now!!!!
