RAD Pack number 3 and 4

Inside my RAD Pack number 3, I found this turquoise cabochon.

I wanted to set the stone in my metal clay ring.

This is something I have never done in metal clay, usually my work has so much detail and textures that I rarely use stones in it.

 Although I like my design, I made some mistakes in my setting and I am not very happy with the ring at the end. I will make it again and take all my mistakes as a good learning opportunity.

On my fourth RAD pack I found a gold granulated cabochon.

 I have on my work bench a piece of bronze and got the idea of putting the ring together using this piece. I used my bronze clay piece with brass wire and my cabochon.
