Anatomy Of A Mokume Ring
Mokume Gane is a world where artistry and craftsmanship collide to create stunning engagement rings and wedding bands. The captivating anatomy of these remarkable pieces comprises two essential components: the mesmerizing mokume gane and the alluring precious-metal liner. Prepare yourself for a delightful exploration of colors, materials, and design possibilities!
Liner
Our mokume is inlaid into the precious-metal liner of your choice. The liner encompasses the area of the ring that touches the finger, the sides (rails), and, if you are creating an engagement ring, the setting itself. With many of our mokume engagement rings, the setting can be crafted in a different metal from the band, adding an extra touch of allure. Since the mokume is the main attraction, a liner may either complement or contrast the mokume, allowing you to create a harmonious symphony of colors.

Krikawa's Mokume Finish & Etch
Our matte finish is achieved by masking all surfaces of the ring except the mokume, then bead blasting the mokume with fine glass beads. This treatment results in a satin finish that absorbs light and helps the different colors of the mokume become apparent. It is recommended to accentuate the mokume pattern.
As with any finish, the bead-blasted surface is extremely superficial and will show signs of wear. The ring will eventually take on a uniformly worn look.
