This is Goat. She is a rustic 18k gold band. Goat is about 2mm wide & about 1.3 - 1.4mm thick. I made her out of a clay like wax to give her a rough porous earthy feel. Although she is quite simple I chose to make a mold of her in wax & cast her using the lost wax method. I love the subtle softness that the wax forms which is difficult for me to achieve using gold wire. Goat’s texture makes the gold have a little shimmer in the light. I will make Goat for you in your size, please message me with any questions. Keep in mind that she is handmade & will be similar, but not exactly as the one in the photo. Your Goat will be sent off in 3-5 weeks. If you need yours sooner I may have one as sometimes I cast a few extra, just message me. A little about how your ring was made. Lost wax casting. I begin by creating a wax model of your ring. I then make a mold of it with plaster. After it sets, I place your mold into my kiln for many hours during which the wax is melted out. Next I melt your gold & spin it into the mold using a centrifugal casting machine. It is then quenched in water, there is a mini explosion as the hot flask hits the water & your plaster mold is destroyed. Now for my favorite part, I dig to the bottom of the bucket to find your little gold sculpture. I’m so happy, your ring is ready to be cleaned, textured & finished. This may seem a bit extreme for a simple gold band, but I love the organic softness which is created by wax. :: International shipping :: Please message me before you check out. I will look into shipping costs for you & see if I am allowed to send gold to your country as there are many restrictions. Thank you for visiting. Organic Wedding Band. An Earthy Ring. Goat
