AnswerHello Douglas,
It would be possible to create what you ask, and dependent upon how much gold you have, then it may be enough to complete the job.
I can make you this piece, but would need to assess the gold for Karat and suitability.
I don't cast generally, but could easily hand build the piece.
My studio is in Adelaide and I will be in Sydney Monday 13 and Tuesday 14 next week.
Call me on 0419 031 440 if you'd you'd like to meet up....and I can thus measure your finger too.
Cheers, Peter
