Ring-a-Day 21/365 1.21.10
Handmade (by me) Japanese paper, sterling silver, glass beads.
The ring was made from a piece of the paper it is pictured on.
Paper was made in the Japanese tradition using hand-beaten kozo. It is extremely thin. The inclusions are the inner bark of osage orange. The paper is soft yet tough. In hindsight I would design the ring differently, but it turned out better than expected.
