Description This is the finished lifeline cross ring made of sterling silver. This was the first commission done after the Crass ring so I was still in a learning curve, you can tell by the thickness of the band. The lifeline/heart beat goes all the way around. The design is based on the customer's church bulletin logo. The customer is a good friend of mine, but did not want an antique or enamel finish in the recessed areas, even though I recommended it. Not the best pictures of the final ring due to me leaving finger prints on the ring, oh well. Not a great finish job on the inside of the band either, but if I filed out all the defects the size of the band would have become to large for the customer, that is one of the troubles with making custom jewelry.

Excellent work and attention to detail.

Do you have a website where you sell your finished work or take commissions?

The only commissions I take are for my chain mail wallet chains or key chains or what ever you can come up with that would need a chain, like for purse straps or sporan chains on a kilt. As for the jewelry, not right now. I have trouble finding someone to cast my wax carvings. But if you have an idea for the chain mail chains other than wallets let me know and I can give you a quote.
