Connections Mokume Gane Rings
Opposites

In the Mokume Connection Rings I wanted to contrast the soft, curving quality of the mokume with the bold, simple geometry of the connection, the emptiness of the cut with the solidity of the connector.
 
                                
 
                                I wanted to emphasize the connection itself
                                       with a beautifully massive connector.
 
 
To enhance the dimensionality (and to entertain the eye), I made the dimensions of the cuts in the mokume band and the dimensions of the solid color connectors the same, so there would be a play between positive and negative space.
 
 
 
 
Is it a "minus" or a "plus"?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Is it a "diagonal" or an "X"?
 
 
 
 
 
 
The Mokume Connections Rings were designed to be worn either as a bold everyday ring with a strong graphic statement or as a wedding ring with an exuberant metaphor for a great relationship.

I especially like the Connections Rings in their wide 10mm form.
