Making a ring using my own 24kt gold?

I have several small 24kt gold bars that are 10g each. Would that typically be enough to make a thin ring (say 1.5 or 2mm) in a size 3.75 or 4? I know Raven's Refuge allows customers to supply their own gold- are there any other vendors who do the same?

Onbviously the gold would have to be alloyed with something but I'd hope to keep it at 22kt.

It's unlikely a ring of that size would be more than 3g.

I don't have any info on how to go about using your own gold with a vendor, but I know Raven's Refuge is very responsive and will certainly answer your questions.

Good luck with the project.
I love my high carat band and absolutely can recommend both the vendor and the versatility of the piece.

I have no idea but am curious to find out. I have several 24K gold bands but haven't worn them for fear of wearing down their beautiful designs. I'm guessing 10 grams should be more than sufficient to make a thin gold band based on my hefty double row 24K bracelet that weighs 28g.
