Stunning and unconventional. A cocktail ring, sandcast in sterling silver with mixing sand textures juxtaposed with polished surfaces and channel set across the curved surface with square stones.
A size K ring, - can be made slightly bigger if needed.
This ring is cast using sand from Kennack Sands on the tip of the south coast of Cornwall. The ring was cast using the Delft Clay technique (every ring cast is different as the mould can only be used once), and then it was cleaned by hand, polished and set.
The stones are channel set. There are five iolites, princess cute arranged across the curved surface. Iolites have a depth that is hard to describe as they are purple-blue but the inclusions give them a deep sparkle, the Romans called them “water sapphires”.
If you like this style of ring, but would prefer a different stones - diamonds, sapphires please email me (enquires@iainsainsbury.com) and we can discuss further.

This is a ring, sandcast in sterling silver with sapphires set during the casting as “cast-in-place”. The five Sri Lankan sapphires used in this ring were added to the mould before the metal was poured, the heat gives them a soft dark colour and is a unique feature.
A cocktail ring with a difference, no two stones respond the same way when cast in place, a true one of a kind (size K1/2 - can be made slightly bigger if needed)
The ring was cast using the Delft Clay technique (every ring cast is different as the mould can only be used once), and then it was cleaned by hand and polished.
The stones are pastel Sri Lankan sapphires which have been heated during casting to give their final warm tones. There are four on the top of the ring and one on the side.

A unique ring, double sandcast in 9ct gold and sterling silver with contrasting rough sand textures juxtaposed with a polished surface. The ring is set with 13 2.5mm moissanites.
Perfect as a very eye-catching engagement ring (size L - can be made slightly bigger if needed), elegant with a wonderful mix of organic and refined elements
This ring is unique and cast using sand from Kennack Sands on the tip of the Lizard in Cornwall. The ring was cast using the Delft Clay technique (every ring cast is different as the mould can only be used once), in two stages. The Bombe section was cast first and then the gold shank was cast over the silver, after this ring it was cleaned by hand, polished and set.
The stones are pave set in three rows. I use moissanites as opposed to diamonds as they are less environmentally damaging as they are lab grown.
