I designed this ring several years ago. It has my twin sons’ faces on it in gold. The ring itself is in platinum. If you look around the center stone, you can see my artist signature. My boys are mirror twins. So I put the left handed kid on the left (Stryker), and the right handed kid (Sterling) on the right. The diamonds come from the worst conflicts possible.

I had a pretty primitive set up for resin printing, and casting. It was honestly a pleasant surprise that I was able to pull it off.

Occasionally people hit me up, and start the conversation with something like “I’m not looking for anything fancy”. By this point I’ve already checked out. That’s not speaking my language. That’s not how this conversation started. One of the guys over at hit me up and said he was looking for a one of a kind necklace. I’ve always wanted to make one of these.
