Holy balls, I didn't even zoom in to look at the prongs on that serpent ring. That's the kind of design made by someone who only ever designs shit and never has to work on the physical product. It looks cool but no one will ever bother to attempt to recreate that if they need to do maintenance. Plus I could easily see the little circles just, bending off and OOP, there goes the stone. There's a reason prongs are designed the way they are.

Fucking design nerds ๐Ÿ™„ and I say that as someone with more design experience than practical experience - but at least I fucking listen to actual bench jewelers when I do my CAD work.
