Silver ring with floral decorations in Niello handmade

Process:

1. Ring Preparation: The ring is shaped from solid silver and pre-polished.

2. Hand Engraving: Floral designs are carefully engraved by hand using fine tools.

3. Niello Preparation: Niello is a mixture of silver, copper, lead, and sulfur, creating a deep black or bluish-gray paste or powder.

4. Inlaying: The niello is applied into the engraved lines and melted using controlled heat.

5. Finishing: Excess niello is polished off, revealing the design in sharp contrast with the shiny silver surface.

Result: A refined and timeless jewel, with rich black floral details against bright silver — each piece is unique and entirely handmade.
