4-Loop OneFooter Ring in 18k White Palladium Gold

Description

The 4-loop version of my OneFooter ring takes up a little less space along the finger, but it’s still made by first forging, then winding it to wrap around the finger without beginning or end.
The forged facets of this spiral ring give many reflections, and allow the eye a place to linger. The metal finds its way differently each time, and thus no two rings are the same.

The white gold I use is very special. It is called ‘palladium white gold’. It is a much more superior alloy, as palladium is a highly pure metal; alloyed with pure gold, it creates a gorgeous dark white precious metal, which looks a bit more like platinum than commercial white gold.  It is a highly valuable metal, which does not have to be rhodium plated again and again like commercial white gold.

Even though it is incredibly durable and strong, 18k Palladium white gold is very malleable – it loves being forged, and thus lends itself to the forging technique I use. I appreciate its density and colour very much – it is very contemporary. Best of all, it is hypo-alleregenic, as it does not contain nickel.
You can read more about the materials I use and their sources in the Materials section of my website.

Average width of this ring is 7-8mm (ca. 5/16″)
I also make them in the original 5-Loop OneFooter, and the smaller 3-Loop versions.
