Had this sitting on my bench for awhile with some other work in progress. It didn't know if it wanted to be a pendant or ring. Well Sunday it decided while I was taking a break it wanted to become a ring. Who am I to deny? So here it is. Needs a final polish when I get home.

That's beautiful, toiv0! Your stone chose well!

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

A pretty statement ring! Nice work!

I've never seen a ring made with a coil. When I saw the first photo I assumed that the coils were simply waiting to be sawed into multiple bands much like making jump rings. I can see how a large stone can benefit from more support.
