ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Each solitaire engagement ring is seamlessly patterned and handcrafted from material that is created by STEVEN JACOB. Making our own material gives us complete control over the design of the ring and ensures its quality for you. Platinum is one of the most demanding metals to use in Mokume Gane, and STEVEN JACOB co-founder Steve Midgett was the first to conquer it nearly 20 years ago. These rings are hand forged and meticulously carved to shape. They are then polished and given a light etch to highlight the flow of the woodgrain metal. The diamond is carefully and securely hammer set down into the metal of the ring itself with no other prongs or bezels needed. Lastly, it is given a lustrous matte finish.
STEVEN JACOB's co-founder, Steve Midgett, first started working with Mokume Gane in 1974, and has spent decades developing innovative techniques for the process. He has taught and lectured all over the world on his work and methods, and published two books on the subject. With his son Jacob, they continues to push the boundaries of what is possible for Mokume Gane, Damascus Steel, and other patterned metals.
We are committed to using precious metals and gems from responsible sources. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns about where the materials for your ring come from. View certificate here.
