Emerald City ring

I've had this lovely chunk of rough emerald kicking around for some time now, and finally got to build a suitably rough ring for it. I hand-forged the fine silver bezel and put that on a recycled sterling base plate and a wide, textured sterling band. I'm loving the results! Makes a definite statement and is comfy to wear...

Hope you like it too. I have another similar emerald nugget that I'll use to do a variation on this ring. Stay tuned...
