The heat treating in person is a much brighter cobalt blue than what my phone could pick up. The client was very pleased. The ring itself is rather large, a size 17US whereas commonly stores don't sell above a 13US.
This thing took a good ammount of time to sand and polish, I kept running into pitting and bubble issues, thankfully they were simple enough to repair.
The Inlay is a very pretty black opal, there are two size types within the inlay, a powdered sand peppered with slightly larger stones, all hand set.
I love how Damascus has this beautiful wood grain look.
Finished another lil commission, the client requested something more durable. This is a tungsten carbide Damascus, that has been heat treated. The inlay is black opal. The size of this ring is a whopping 17Us.
