Chased Silver ring with Black Onyx

For as long as I can remember I have been drawn to the color (or rather lack there of color) black. Black cats, black eyes.....and I think I have enough black shirts to last me a month. And its not that I don’t like color in my life, because technically black absorbs all colors of the spectrum....so my life is pretty colorful, despite all the black....its just what I like. Oh and gray/silver also.
Creating this ring was fun, fun (no sarcastic connotation at all). The bezel had to be curved on the bottom to get a good solder all around. Then I created a flat seat inside the bezel so the stone does not sit on the curved part of the ring which could cause the stone to crack.
