I FINALLY made an order from Shapeways for some stainless steel prints. I am so so pleased with the results. They're gorgeous and have such a satisfying weight. I made the tree fractal pendant for a commission and the bridge rings were an experiment. They turned out really delicate and nice. Ordered two in a size 7 and two in a size 8.5. They're made mostly of 1mm pipes but were still sturdy enough for the steel. Great stuff.
My only complaint is that I ordered straight up steel and am 99% positive these have been bronze plaited. The bronze is gorgeous and I was thinking of ordering that...BUT I didn't because I know it stains your skin and would not be great for rings. I've been wearing one all day and haven't seen a stain yet, but I'm leery.
