Rings that go with Pendants

One of the newer things I am doing with jewelry is to have rings to go with the pendants. Even though they are all one of a kind they still have some simularity. The rings are on silver plated brass and they are adjustable. They look very stylish on the fingers and they are so much fun.

The leopard is from a broken glass fused on a solid white glass with a COE of 96. The zebra is from a broken vase also fused on white with a COE of 96. The zebra also looks good fused with pink, cream or light browns and light blues.

I often buy scrap glass from glass blowers on line and sometimes I run into some amazing glass in other forms and break them. Not knowing the COE of the pieces I usually experiment with fusing to see how they will do. Sometimes it is only a matter of heat adjustment in the kiln.
