The finished ring holder.

Yesterday at the Nick's workshop I applied the finish to the ring holder, I used a iron paste polish to blacken the metal and once it was dry I applied a industrial lacquer to protect it. The reason I chose to blacken the metal is because the ring that is sitting on the tail is a mixed titanium with a gold band and I feel that the ring wouldn't stand out on just cut brushing and lacquering. I'm happy with the final result and think it really looks the part and when I get back to Bristol I will be trying to find a ring to get some photos of it being used before I send it to it's home in the USA.
