ARBIH - STORY OF CREATION

Today I want to share with you one story of creating jewelry in the form of a silver seal for men.

I was approached by a client from the USA with Bosnian roots. He wanted to create a themed ring in the form of a signet with the coat of arms of his homeland on the plate and two tanks on the sides.

This work, as conceived by the customer, was dedicated to the Army of Bosnia and Herzegovina. We refer such works to the category "Patriotic jewelry" and we carefully study every detail of the work with the client, so as not to distort the meaning of the work and convey the symbolic load as much as possible.

Since the client wanted to order several of these rings, we had to create a rubber mold for replication.
And this is how the product looked right after it was cast in the foundry. In this form, it comes to craftsmen for manual processing and grinding.
In this photo, you can already see that we have given the ring a black tint to emphasize the contrast of the pattern. The rest of the surfaces are carefully hand-polished for a perfect shine.
The shank shape of this signet ring can be recommended as a classic basis for such works of patriotic themes.

The whole work took about three weeks. Of these, 1 week for modeling, 1 week for creating a prototype of the model and 1 week for the direct manufacture of a product in silver.
