No fear of commitment

Although several people have said "oh, I should have you do our rings," It's been a while since such comments have actually come to fruition. Well, a couple I know actually committed (no pun intended) to having me make their rings.
They wanted them to be coordinating, but not exactly the same. I pointed out that doing so would cost more because of the need to create two different designs, and suggested a design with a pattern that made the rings look different depending on how they were placed on the finger. They liked this idea, and off I went.
I designed a pattern that would rotate around (and be cut out of) the surface of the ring, which gave the design uniqueness due to the "negative space" and also would cause the rings to look coordinating yet different when worn, based on what part of the pattern was visible on the top of the finger. And if they get tired of looking at a particular part of the pattern, all they have to do is give the ring a twist. The pattern doesn't say anything; it's a series of shapes that play off each other, much like my Geoglyphic bracelet.
