Recommendation:
"Jill and I wanted to have very unique wedding rings that reflected our very special relationship. We met Shannon at the Globe Studios open house, and found her to be a lovely person. We visited Shannon with the concept that we had developed for the rings, including an image of a Van Gogh painting that inspired the design. We liked Shannon from the first time that we met her. She listened to what we wanted, added her own thoughts, and was very patient insuring that we got exactly what we wanted. She did a fabulous job in recreating the texture from the Van Gogh brush strokes we wanted in the rings. We had 5 sessions as the rings developed including the wax. Shannon tweaked the design making sure the rings were exactly what we wanted. We had a concept, however we did not know precisely what we wanted. Shannon helped us through the process.
We just picked up the rings a few minutes ago. They took our breath away! They are everything we imagined and a lot more!
Thank you Shannon, for helping make the occasion of our wedding very special and unique."
The value is also extraordinary. "
Mokume-Gane Wedding Bands
Mokume-gane (木目金 Mokume-Gane)
is a mixed-metal laminate with distinctive layered patterns. The name was borrowed from one type of pattern created in the forging of swords and other edged weapons in ancient Japan.
First made in 17th-century Japan, the mixed-metal was used only for sword fittings until the Meiji era, when the decline of the Katana industry forced artisans to create purely decorative items instead.
The inventor, Denbei Shoami (1651–1728), initially called his product "guri bori" for its simplest form's resemblance to Guri, a type of carved lacquerwork with alternating layers of red and black. Other historical names for it were "Kasumi-Uchi" (cloud metal), "Itame-Gane" (wood-grain metal), and "Yosefuki".
The name Mokume-Gane translates “wood grain metal” and represents the wood grain patterns of the technique. The finished product displays myriad layers of coloured metals rippling and flowing in various directions. Each piece of metal is forged and worked by hand to achieve unique patterns. Mokume-Gane is a very difficult and time consuming process.
Mokume-Gane is created using precious and non-ferrous metals such as Platinum, Gold, Palladium, Silver, and other traditional Japanese alloys.
Cynosure Jewelry proudly manufactures each Mokumé-Gané billet at its studio, using the traditional Japanese techniques in metallurgy combined with the latest high tech equipment to achieve "Fused Bonding Mokume-Gane billets" as it was made in the 17th century in Japan.
From these billets, unique and beautiful pieces of jewelry are designed by Shannon Kennedy and Juan Bohorquez.
