Ring Gongu - Expressive in Mokume Gane Design
Mokume Gane Ring Gongu in palladium, yellow gold and silver
Like all the jewellery in the "Mokume Silver" collection designed by Michael Wiesner, the Mokume Gane Ring Gongu (jap.: Gong) has a basic design in 925 silver. On top, the Mokume Gane is expressively presented in the precious metals yellow gold 750, palladium 500 and silver 925. The Mokume Gane patterned parts of the Mokume Silver collection are of course welded, patterned and forged by master goldsmith Markus Wiesner.
The lower part of the ring, which is made of silver, i.e. the entire ring band, is galvanically tarnish-protected with a rhodium layer after finishing. Although this wears off a little over time, it can always be reapplied.

Mokume Gane wedding rings from passion
Master goldsmith Markus Wiesner, is one of two owners of "Wiesner - Die Goldschmiede" and has been making Mokume Gane wedding rings and jewelry with enthusiasm and passion since 2006.
In doing so, Markus Wiesner has basically dedicated himself to the classical forging technique in the endless process. These Mokume Gane wedding rings, which are forged without a seam or butt joint, symbolize the unforgettable nature of love in a unique way.
The fact that the Mokume Gane wedding rings of "Wiesner - Die Goldschmiede" are offered in each case also with butt joint, serves only to make aware that there are differences in the quality. Since some offerers of these wedding rings manufacture and offer these with butt joint, and this is not always immediately obvious, the price however clearly more favorably precipitates, we place this in our presentation directly opposite.
The second owner of "Wiesner-Die Goldschmiede" is Michael Wiesner. As a trained businessman and business economist (VWA), he fills the area of photography, web design, product ideas and presentation, and marketing. In the area of idea generation, the collections of zodiac rings (2001) and mama rings (2004) are to his credit. He is also responsible for the discovery of the Mokume Gane technique as an interesting forging art for "Wiesner-Die Goldschmiede".
