The process of creating a ring is facinating. The method I use is called Lost Wax Casting. This means that the wax model that I make is 'lost' or melted out of the mold and the metal is melted and cast into the plaster mold. I make my metals from the pure raw metals; Gold, Silver, Platinum, Copper, Zinc, Paladium and Nickel. I use formulas that I've researched from many sources.

Initially I begin with an idea then sketch it out on paper then make a wax model and then cast that.
Metal that has been cast requires 12 more steps to polish it and keep the detail.
