Jen's Design

This job started with one of the most unusual and beautiful Tourmaline's I have ever seen. Blue on one end and Green on the other. The customer also had several medium sized diamonds. I usualy like architechical design so I was out on this one. Jen came up with the concept working with the customer on an abstract design that showed off the Blue-green tourmaline to its best. I honestly had my doubts about this one but I was wrong.
This was the origional concept. The idea was to make an abstract shaped ring but have the main stone go perfectly vertical on the finger.
The render looked pretty good but really didnt show things off as well as I wanted.
On the hand model It looked like this ring might twist. That could be a big problem.
We milled the wax. and had the customer try it on but I was sure it was going to twist on her. So we added a slim extra shank to stabilize the ring.






Well that worked just perfect
Jen really created a winner with this.
