The ring band measures 3mm wide by 1 mm thick and the heart was cut .25 inch wide from 18 gauge sterling silver. After cutting the flat ring band, the band was hammered over a steel ring mandrel with a nylon mallet until the ends are perfectly aligned, permanently joined with sterling silver solder, and carefully filed by hand to create a nearly invisible seam. Finally the band was hammered into a perfect measured ring on a steel mandrel with size increments. Stamped by hand with n & r and darkened with a black patina, the heart was soldered to the sterling silver band to complete the ring. The polished finish is produced with a combination of hand burnishing followed by tumbling in both ceramic shot and walnut shell.
