Your wedding rings are made from all recycled, United States milled precious metals. All of our metals are milled in the United States, and shipped to us. We then hand fabricate your rings in our Boulder studio.
Hand fabrication is a process where we cut, form, forge and solder the stock that you order into a perfect fitting ring. We then finish the rings according to your specifications. We do not cast anything!
