Cast and ready to be set

Here it is, waiting for the stones I'll be setting into it. I am planning to put alexandrite in the center and CZ's on the sides.

My internship has been pretty much been finalized. I begin on August eighth, three days a week. When I picked up my ring David showed me some of the projects he was working on. I watched him set thousands of dollars worth of diamonds flawlessly into both gold and platinum rings. I can't wait until I am able to do things like that.

Printed, ready to cast

So here it is, finally. David, the jeweler who has the equipment to produce stuff like this is also having the ring cast for me in silver. After that I just have to get the cz's and alexandrite I want to set and it will finally be completely done. As an added bonus David asked me if I would want to come in and work with him. It'll be a little bit of a commute, but this is an opportunity I will not pass up. Plus it will be an internship getting me the final credits I need to graduate.
