Instructions
- First, pick out a sterling silver band that’s the right size. You want it comfy so it sits just right on your finger all day long.
- Next, craft the lotus mandala design setting and make sure it fits snug on the band.
- Now, place the trillion-cut alexandrite gemstone carefully right into the mandala to position it so the light hits just right.
- If it looks like it needs extra hold, apply a thin bit of jeweler’s adhesive to keep the stone secure through everyday wear.
- Pop the ring setup gently into your pressure cooker using the sealing ring to keep everything tight, then set on cooking mode for slow release to let it settle evenly.
- After cooking, perform a tender natural release. Finally, polish the whole ring with a polishing cloth until it shines bright and inspect closely with your magnifying glass for any flaws.
Notes
Handle the ring gently and use the polishing cloth regularly to maintain shine. Store in a soft cloth in a cool, dry place to preserve its finish.
