Textures in Metal

I love working with different textures in Metal. 

This is doubly apparent when you look at some of my first creations. 

This is the first ring I made. It's sterling silver and half an inch wide. That hammered pattern is made with a ball pein hammer, and I am almost overly fond of this texture. It really makes any piece of jewelry look very organic.

This is a sterling silver wrap-around ring textured with a riveting hammer. I love making these rings because they are so simple to create; no soldering required. :) 

Also, if you're in the business of selling jewelry, these are perfect because the size can be easily adjusted (Depending on which finger you want to wear it on).
