Special orders

A lot of my weekly work at Angie Star Jewelry is filling special orders and doing repairs. It's a great way for me to learn new skills and perfect my techniques. Here are a couple of rings I completed and a personalized pendant.

I soldered this sterling flower to a ring band I made turning a flower pendant into a flower ring.

Repair:
The copper wiring on this ring kept breaking so I rewired this ring and soldered the copper wiring on.

Special order:
Personalized name pendants on sterling silver with brass ring.
