Places Ring: Italian Lake

August 24, 2016

Rather than using an old map, I went to a trusty aerial image, then edited with a bit of distortion–just enough to make it look like some sort of jasper while still keeping the image recognizable as a place.

The band and bezel are made from sterling silver. I love this idea of taking a special place and memory and transforming it into subtle adornment.
