Summer is fast approaching. Life in Pinedale, Wyoming goes from winter to summer in an instant, it was snowing 2 weeks ago and now it’s in the 70’s, the grass is getting green and already needs to be cut. Our corner of the USA is heaven on Earth in the summertime, wilderness and wildlife abound and the sky is huge and blue.
I always look forward to chatting with tourists on road-trips that stop by my shop and backpackers heading into the Wind River Range for an exciting trip. This past weekend we camped out for the first time this season and then floated the Green River for 13 miles in our canoe with friends. The river is covered with birds this time of year since they are all migrating north. What an amazing place.
This ring is in 14K White Gold and I set the customer’s diamond that she had me take out of an older ring.
A 14K Rose Gold 3mm hammered ring with a 6mm yellow citrine, this ring was made for a customer that already had a matching rose gold wedding band.
Here is a 6mm ‘satin finish’ Tiger Stripe hammered ring in sterling silver, the customer requested a cushion cut white topaz be set in a thicker bezel.
London Blue Topaz set in a tapered Regular Hammer ring. My customer had bought this stone many years ago and it had been sitting in her jewelry box so she was happy to finally use it.
A 3mm sterling silver with garnet Tiger Stripe hammered ring. I have used so many different gemstones over the years!
And a smokey quartz cushion cut gem set inline with the hammered band.
