Frequently Asked Questions
-
Mokume Gane is a traditional Japanese metalworking technique that creates distinctive wood-grain patterns by permanently bonding multiple layers of different metals. The layered billet is forged, carved, twisted, and shaped to reveal organic patterns that run throughout the metal. Originally developed for decorating samurai sword fittings, Mokume Gane is now widely used to craft one-of-a-kind wedding bands and fine jewelry.
-
Every Mokume Gane ring has a unique pattern created within the metal itself rather than engraved or printed on the surface. The forging process ensures no two rings have the same grain, making each piece one of a kind. Steven Jacob handcrafts every ring to order using original Mokume Gane patterns and carefully selected premium metals.
-
Many Mokume Gane wedding rings offered by Steven Jacob are resizable by at least one full ring size. However, resizing options depend on the ring's design, shape, and gemstone settings. Customers are encouraged to confirm sizing options before ordering, especially for highly customized designs.
