A Two-Tone Air Force Ring

Lila commissioned this ring for Mike's birthday: two-tone 18k with custom Air Force insignia and rank, and a star-cut glacier blue topaz.

The insignia were carved in wax and cast separately, then soldered to the cast ring before setting. Lila wrote that the emblem and rank were so detailed, and that she was glad they chose 18k for the depth of its glow.
