We built these rings from the initial FAX of the art work, sent to me here, and the finished pictures of the finished wedding set tell the story nicely... Each ring is based upon an ancient celtic design with an oval alexanderite set in a low bezel... Unique? Yes... Affordable? Yup, they were that as well...
The fact is that it's generally only imagination and follow thru which are limiting factors...
Consider this page's reason for being is to show you what can happen when you know what you want, we will take the time to work the idea up to a refined project.... So, let you imagination soar and think of the many personalized and unique possibilities you can explore... Feel free to fax me your idea for you "one of a kind" wedding rings, something which is truly yours...
Now you have a way to increase your choices!
Knowledge is power,
be more powerful :)

Seth, FAX me the idea & I'll work up some rough drafts for your consideration :)

So, we took the art, scanned and converted to postscript, and through a series of processes cast two rings in 18Kt gold (White) with "exactly" what the customer had in mind incorporated... Notice that the twin outer rims on the ladies ring are not exactly what they seem at first glance :)
Note that one outer band is detatchable, so when they're finally soldered together they will be just like the gent's ring... Twin outer rails framing the basic deeply etched design....
Nice touch, huh? I thought so :)
Now remember, if you have an idea or a pattern you want to work with just think of the possibilities.... I just recieved a nice e-mail I think I'll end this thread with, it says so very clearly what it's all about in the end....

Just thought I'd tell you that Christie really loves her ring :-)
Thanks,
Seth
When a customer takes the extra time to say "thank you" I remember why I love the web so much, it's the on ramp to tomorrow & working with quality individuals like Seth & Christie.... It all makes more sense today than it has for years, people who truly appreciate creative and crisp professional products and results :)
Thanks for lookin' me up Seth!
Imagine that!
