Adorning a Damaged Antique Art Deco Ring
Maddie picked up this antique engagement ring at the Tucson gem show because it reminded her of a silver ring her mom gave her when she was 16. But years ago, a bad resizing job had nearly destroyed the detailed engraving along the side. With her wedding coming up she asked me to resize and restore it. Much of the original pattern was gone, so I had to hand carve a new design and blend it in seamlessly into what remained. The before and after is crazy on this one!
