The response to my new Black Zirconium offerings (and Damascus as well! but I admit to being most enthusiastic about Black Zirconium) has been overwhelming and gratifying.  Working with this new material has provided so much inspiration, causing me to rethink design and what woods work best with what metals.  Below are some new designs that include Black Zirconium, including on that incorporates Amboyna Burl, one of my favorite materials and one of the rarest, most expensive woods in the world.  This is a ring I have been making for years, even back when I made all-wood rings. The original design was Gabon Ebony exterior and Amboyna Burl interior, and I am so pleased that I am able to make this design again.
