This is what I've been working on for the past couple of days: silver rings for 1/3 scale BJDs. They're sculpted from PMC silver (Art Clay Silver 650 Slow Dry, to be precise, which has a low enough firing temperature that you can fire it on a gas hob). I sculpted them yesterday, and after drying overnight I fired them today. I then polished them up; they are now ready for setting with 1mm gems. The top ring in the picture above has a bezel mount, whereas the lower two have prong mounts.
To give you a clearer idea of just how small these rings are, here is the 4th ring I made - which is for a slightly larger 70cm doll (I hadn't finished polishing this one when I took the photo):
Although these rings aren't quite finished, I'm quite pleased with how they've come out thus far; I think I've definitely improved in skill since I last tried my hand at ring-making for dolls. These four rings will eventually be put up for sale once finished.
