Dear Gaspare,
as I wrote - I�m not sure, if it was cast bar or ring. But I think it was the ring.
To adjust to required size is the same procedure - you cut twice by tongs. You don�t need molds in few sizes. What is more comfortable - to join few milimeters, or bend bar by smiting of hammer?
Both manufacturing processes have some pros and cons to determine the correct by that.
Stop think about indolence production and follow the track to the ring.
Why contemporary jewellers are not pressing their rings? Time is money, after all...
