A spectacular One-of-a-kind Rosarita Heart ring lets the world know - you know what love is and you wear your heart for all to see.
What is Rosarita slag glass?
Rosarita is a unique material, which gets its exceptionally rich, red color from the process of gold refining. It is a unique by-product of the 1960s-1970s gold refining processes.
Alaskan beach sand was smelted for its gold content and the slag by-product was Rosarita, it is essentially a gold-infused glass.
The base material for Rosarita is silica (which is quartz particles) mixed with gold at high temperatures.
This ring with its gorgeous depth of color and heart shape speaks volumes from across the room.
Details:
Ring Size: 7
Rosarita Heart Measures: 20mm tall x 20mm tall
The sterling bezel surrounding the heart, I kept simple to let the Rosarita speak for itself. The sterling ring band, I made more bold and is created from recycled sterling scraps that I melt then hand roll through a rollingmill to form the shape of the 1/2 round wire. I then form the wire into a round shape and solder. I doubled them up to give it a more substaitial and eye catching base and keeps the fabulous stone snug on the finger.
Most of my pieces are handmade, created one of a kind- one at a time.

I make all the jewerly myself! I usually start with sterling silver sheet and sterling silver wire (or Gold filled ) and forge it with hammers, saws, stamps,
hydraulic press, etc. and all most always, there is a silversmithing torch involved. I use genuine stones, unless noted and mainly sterling silver, but also love other metals like gold filled, gold bronze and I especially love pure gold when price isn't an issue for my customer. Sometimes I even play with brass or german silver when requested. I absolutely love making jewelry and am so happy I get to do this for a living. I hope you enjoy wearing it as much as I enjoyed making it. Please let me know if you have any questions or would like to see additional photos. Thank you for looking!
