Hello folks, this is a project I've been mulling over for some time now. It's a simple but unique project, this nail ring carries special significance, I hope you all like it!


The art of making knows no boundaries, so this ring is a tribute to all forms of artistic creation, it symbolizes the multidimensional nature of the artisan. It's quite obviously a wood nail. It's a tribute to the carpenter, the joiner, the painter, the sculptor, the jeweler, the artisan. This is a ring I actually made for myself, you'll see me wear it in my next videos and it's special because it's the first time I make something specifically for myself to wear.

I used 925 sterling silver for this project and I tried to keep it as simple as possible, I pulled the silver wire to 2,5mm and I used hard silver solder as always. I used my propane torch to fuse the silver and to solder the nail head. My pickling solution is citric acid in distilled water - boiling the silver in the solution is what works best for me. I filed the nail point in a 4 angle point like traditional wood nails.

Feel free to comment if you have any questions or suggestions, or if you just wanna say hi, I'll respond to everyone!
Cheers!
