Islam silver ring for men

For jewelers, it is normal to have to make religious jewelry like this gold ring or this gold religious pendant. As a reminder, you should know that the main precious and archaeological objects of antiquity had a religious connotation.

In this case, we invite you to follow the creation of a men’s ring that represents the third holiest site in Islam.

Those interested in Islam or the history of the three main monotheistic religions will surely have heard of the Dome of the Rock Mosque, built in Jerusalem almost 1500 years ago.

The large signet ring that we present here is a faithful reproduction in solid silver and 18k gold of this building.

The body of the ring as well as the building are reproduced in solid silver while the dome, covered with fine gold leaf on the royal building, is represented here in solid 18 carat gold.

Islam men’s ring in solid silver and gold

Here is another example of a Muslim signet ring with an excerpt of the Quran text engraved on the ring plate, made using our custom creation service.

This is a particularly delicate creation, because it was necessary to reconstruct the mosque in CAD, and then create the ring in three pieces using 3D printing.

With a total weight of 35 grams, the ring includes approximately 1 gram of 18k gold.

Our work began by collecting photos and information on the architecture of the mosque which allowed us to take measurements of the walls and respect the proportions of the dome with respect to them.

The design of the ring

Once the measurements had been carried out, we could move on to the actual CAD design. Our goal was to keep all the exterior details of the building visible on the ring.

It was obviously a question of reproducing the geometry of the building but also all the details of the 8 facades with their very particular cells.

This large ring is made up of three pieces welded together, namely the support ring of the building, both in silver and finally the dome in 18 carat gold.

Production

Once the digital model is completed, the three parts making up the ring are printed in resin using the 3D printing process.

These resin masters are then used to make refractory plaster molds used to cast silver and gold metal parts.

Below you can see the raw foundry silver parts of the ring before touch-ups and adjustments.

After the foundry operations to create our metal parts, we must then deburr them and assemble them by welding.

Finishes

We obtain the solid gold dome by the same process of 3D printing and then lost wax casting. Once the dome has been welded, careful polishing allows us to make the ring shine in all its splendor.

The silver is oxidized and then polished, so that all the details stand out
