This is a ring set I made for my sister, in white and rose gold, with a little icy white diamond in the center.

This set was designed by my friends, Ren and Ani, loosely based on some of my previous work and their own ideas.

Blood of Aphrodite

Inspired by the myth of goddess Aphrodite, this ring in white and rose gold holds a red ruby.

According to Greek mythology, all roses where white before Aphrodite bled on them, while mourning her dying lover, Adonis the hunter.
This ring is named Blood of Aphrodite, and will be cast in white and rose gold. The blood red stone is an untreated precision cut natural ruby.
One photo shows the white wax model I hand sculpted, one shows the ring while I am soldering on it with a flame, and the rest show the finished ring.
Twigs, leaves and little rose buds, with tiny droplets representing her tears and blood.
