This was a challenge for me! It is a fairly large cab, for a ring & I used 20 gauge half hard sterling silver, so it was kind of tough to make it do what I wanted it to do. I wanted it to be a large ring, say a 10 or so, but it ended up being a 14 1/2.

Beautiful, Donnie!!! Have you thought about adapting that ring design into bracelets? It would be expensive, but I think the design would transfer nicely! How are your hands after working the hh sterling in that gage?

Hands are good, Cathy! Well, I briefly thought about it, but that's as far as it went!

Mind if I think about it and do some research on it for a bit...which may mean months but winter is setting in so that's okay, lol!

Too big Mario?? Cathy, go for it! Not too big ... too small... my rings fall right off the large ring sizer!! LOL My wedding band was custom made to fit and it is only a simple band!! LOL At one point I think I was wearing a ring that was 2-3 sizes bigger than the large sizer!! all custom made, that's why I don't wear them very often... I go to a show and tell the people that they have nice pinky rings, when they look at me like I'm crazy I pick up a ring and put their big sizes on my pinky!! HA!!
