Mokume-gane is an ancient Japanese technique, where mixed-metal laminate is used to achieve distinctive layered patterns. Translating as "wood-grain metal", the name was borrowed from one type of pattern created in the forging of swords. It comes in a number or different colour combinations, each containing sterling silver and different colours of gold. As we work with it, the different layers come to the surface, creating a wood grain effect. Every ring is totally different, and the patterns are random and unique. It comes in different colour combinations, and can be done with the jeweller during a making appointment.
