Goodnight Moon - Shaktipaj
I named this ring Goodnight Moon because it reminds me of my granddaughters blue eyes - they catch the light and twinkle in much the same way. She also loves the children's book of the same name, so it was fitting.
The band on this is the same weave as "Stephen's Choice." The frame that encloses the stone has sterling beads and faceted labradorite rounds. It lets light in from all sides, so the stone is showcased to best advantage. I do love this ring! It is maybe the third one I've made. Rings are a much more difficult project than you think when you start. This one is a size 7 1/2. I'm not as happy with the join of the bezel to the band as I could be, but it can always be refined.
Comments and critiques are most welcome! Perri

Perri, I love the way your style evolves. This band would make a great wedding ring! The ring is stunning, I can't see anything to be refined here because it's perfect!!!
