Garnet Goldfilled Wire Wrapped Ring Size 7 s09r006

I made this ring using garnet and goldfilled wire, which I wove in a herringbone weave. The garnet is very deep red in color, almost black in appearance. This ring is a size 7.

Garnet is January's birthstone.

About goldfill: Goldfill is a wonderful inexpensive alternative to solid gold. Goldfill is not the same as gold plated. A gold plated metal has a very thin layer of gold that was electroplated onto a base metal. Goldfill, however, is made by heat fusing a layer of gold onto a layer of base metal (usually brass). Unlike gold plated metal, the gold on goldfill is unlikely to wear off, because it is 100-1000 times thicker. The goldfill wire I used in making this ring is 12/20. That means that 12kt gold makes up 1/20 of the volume of the metal.
