[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 2164792, member: 5833"]Not quite sure what this means but it looks to me like the ring band was shaped to accommodate the dent that was already in the matrix, not like the dent occurred while the matrix was set in this ring. The more I look at it, the less comfortable I am with it. You've posted while I've been pondering. The answer to this question is no: It looks cast to me.
