By changing the number of layers of metal in a mokume gane ring, using two billets twisted together or even cutting into the middle of a twist, many different patterns can be achieved. Tighter twists give a steeper angle on the edge and using platinum along with a softer metal such as gold or silver can create a lovely rippled effect after polishing. We’ve had wonderful reactions from clients on delivery of some of these rings!
