An Imperial Topaz Wolf Ring for Andres

Andres chose a natural cherry imperial topaz, emerald cut and 5.26 carats, for a wolf ring in 18k yellow gold.

Carol carved the ring in wax around the stone, refining the wolves on each shoulder before casting, then set the topaz and finished the gold by hand.

On receiving it he wrote that it was extremely detailed and well finished, and that the cherry topaz was gorgeous.
