Mystic Ring Tutorial
This lesson teaches you to make a ring which can hold un-drilled stones attractively and securely. The ring shank design in this tutorial is merely a suggestion. At the end of this lesson you will see other options for the band portion of the ring. Using your own imagination you will be able to adapt the bezel technique in this tutorial so it can be used with many different ring shanks.
