Zopf* braided ring


The "casting skin" becomes polished over time, so each ring develops a unique patina.

By VerenaSchreppel, with thanks to Michelle for the tip!

(Michelle was tenacious. First she sent me a link to this ring, which, NO.)

  3. I love its roughness - tough and pretty - perfect!

    ps. Zopf means braid or pigtail in German - the bread is named after it too.
