It is not hand made, it is cast. End of story.

That's why I was suspicious about. But sometimes some dimples are visible also in rings that are not casted. I'm not familiar with this type of SS rings, so each comment is appreciated. If it was casted, as I supposed and Hapur said, it was hand finished.

Hapur is right. You can see the air bubbles from the mold.

No, absolutely no Gaspare, and that's why I always ask when I have some doubts about a piece. Thanks to all.

Thanks Mike, God bless oyu too! I know Gaspare since years, and IMO he is the number one in this field. I know some other guys since years too, old friends like Ric,.... So I feel "at home" here too. ;-)
