For the first time since I opened my studio, two couples joined me to make their wedding rings at the same time; Katja and Grainger, and Kay and Ade. We all had a great day! Here are some images from the day. We worked in a variety of materials, silver, 9k gold and 18k gold.

So far, so good! Next step is to bring the ends together ready for soldering
