Odd but true, Pete at Quest said they''d being "growing" my ring and true to his word he sent pictures to prove it. I have no idea about the technical stuff but he said that since the ring had to be perfect (a perfect copy of one I already have) that they''d be using some new fancy silicone process where it''s grown. He said it''s different than milling wax into shape. It sounds cool but naturally I''m all about the end product which should be here in a month.

This is a copy of a copy of a 1950''s eternity band that my local jeweler lost of mine.

First the CAD which was modified slightly to have a solid interior band.

This is the "grown" silicone mock up of the ring.

This is the replacement ring that my local jeweler finally came up with. I wanted to have another made so that I could retire the other "old" ring I wear since it became obvious that the new ring was NEW and the old ring was OLD. Now I''ll have 2 new modern 1950''s style eternity rings flanking my old 1920''s eternity e-ring.

Lovely, looks like it will be wonderful!
 
If I send him some magic beans, can he grow me a ring too?
 
beautiful!!!
 
Beautiful! I love seeing the process of the rings being made.
 
That''s so interesting. I wonder how they do that?!?! Either way, your new rings are yummy
