Another one of my early 2014 projects… a “Trinity Cross” comfort ring I made for Kathy by taking heavy gauge half-round wire and forming it flat-side out on the ring mandrel.
The idea of “comfort ring” was taken from my wedding band, as bands that were formed with smoothly rounded inside edges and marketed for their “comfort fit” were big at the time, and they really are quite comfortable bands to wear.
After soldering the band closed and bringing it to size, I then filed a trio of Crosses evenly spaced onto the face to represent the three Crosses on Calvary, followed by a little oxidization with liver of sulfur to make them stand out.
This picture was taken after *much* daily wear as you can tell by the scratches, yet still remains one of her favorites.
