this is an engagement ring created by John Welden for his future wife. this struck me, not only as a new take on an engagement ring, but also as a great example of mechanical craftsmanship.
Welden stated his finance wanted a simple engagement ring without any stones. using CAD to draw up different designs, he was able draft one unique yet simple. he chose to make a ring that housed a hidden diamond. the diamond could be seen by pulling the ring apart.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8sLZ1s9Bvr9DSEN0GCArAJSKtgEtcdgnEPWZg2TeL-BAVNFLiPLvmKqL-CUtEjkFm8pzeW2bOki5SkNOW90682tiQnqLQZJ6lLHUz1BttABKK3n_n8midiBlexJQStlfvw-UJsapkDls/s320/shapeimage_1.png)

the minuscule ring closes with a tight seal to safely secure the diamond. Welden used titanium and stainless steel to create this ring, at a size of 4.5!
in my book, John Welden is a true craftsman, only with true design and careful precision was he able to create this mechanical marvel.
