I was wondering if you were having it remade or not- I thought both versions were beautiful but totally understand your preference towards your original ring. The wax looks wonderful- how long do you think it will be until you have it back?
This wax model looks very nice, this is to make the ring in your avatar picture right?
You may see the wax a little bit larger than the original ring but this is needed in a cast wax, that the wax model needs to be 3 to 5% larger because the jeweler needs to file and refine the setting removing some of the metal from the surface and at the end the cast ring will be identical to your model in the picture.
I''m glad you went ahead with the remake. i think it will be perfect and will be thankful in the long run you didn''t "settle." i can''t wait to see the finished product.
