Specs:

This RingSet is in a class all its own. It contains a total of 24 different ring sizes, including 1/4 ozt each of all our smallest sizes, ranging from 22g/1.5mm to 20g/5.0mm, plus 1/2 ozt each of 18g/8.0mm and 16g/10.0mm. This set's purpose is to provide all the rings you need to unleash the full potential of your creativity in the design of countless earrings.

This RingSet is a unique item, not a kit but a technique oriented set. Please take the time to read all the information on this page as well as the News post about it before deciding if it's right for you. You may also preview the first few pages of the included embellishment book.

 
 
 
  

    RingSet includes:

  • 6.5 troy ounces of sterling, copper or Argentium rings
  • One photo rich, full color copy of Aislyn's Embellishment Book, part 1
  • A couple of little gifts from us,
  • All packaged in beautiful reusable tins.
  • Over 3800 rings
  • Total Weight: 6.5ozt
  • Difficulty Level: Your Choice
  • Experience Required: Familiarity with Chainwork

Note: If you've spent much time on this site, you know that I'm hard at work on a book that teaches techniques for embellishing chain. As a special gift to you, the first chapter of that book is included with this unique RingSet. It begins with detailed instructions for two well known techniques I'm often asked about; Wrapped Loops and Celtic Knots. Once those basics are covered, the rest of the full color, photo illustrated booklet is devoted to some very special techniques I've developed for elegantly hanging briolettes and chaining and capturing beads. This booklet is technique oriented, not project oriented, so while every technique needed to make the pictured earrings is included, you will not find step by step project instructions. My purpose isn't to teach you to assemble by number, but rather to help you acquire the skills you need to make the designs you're dreaming up.

Buy it... NOW August 29, 2008
Reviewer: Hui Ling Lai from Orange, CA United States  
Words can't describe how awesome this kit is.  It's a box of most decadent chocolates money can buy.  As an artist, you have free reign over every tiny little detail... ring sizes beyond belief, imagination, and by far the best embellishment information available on the market today.  That alone is worth the price... honestly, I bought this kit for the embellishment book.  It was the best thing I *ever* did.  Buy it... *NOW*

Rings and rings and a brochure! Oh, my! February 4, 2007
Reviewer: Bunny from Seattle  
I am delighted with the earring designer set. The brochure that comes with it is a treasure. The professionalism and creativity that continues to issue from Urban Maille is, well, amazing. My 19-year-old daughter the fashion diva knows good jewelry when she sees it, but she doesn't know how to design it. She took one look at the brochure enclosed with the kit and was able to tell me which styles she wanted me to make (all of them) and what color stones she wanted to go with each particular style. Then we sat down together to determine which sized rings she wanted an earring made. The process of finding the correct aspect ratio for the design she wanted has given her a whole new respect for me as her jewelry designer/maker and for Aislyn's knowledge and creativity. If you've got the money available, I think the Earring Designer is an excellent investment.

The Earring Designer January 13, 2007
Reviewer: Kate from IL near St. Louis  
It is wonderful to have such a great assortment of rings but the booklet is AMAZING! I am new to design and have felt a little lost but the inspiration Aislyn shares is priceless. I want to add my name to your waiting list for your book's eventual release! The packaging is lovely and feels like a special present to myself. Thank you for once again, exceeding my expectations!

Earring Designer Kit December 30, 2006
Reviewer: Linda from Illinois, USA  
This is great with every size of ring you could want (mostly). I have been buying sample rings to get assortments, but no more. Some nice new techniques are offered too. I can always use that. Ha Ha. -Linda
