Iron Bess Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 Here's a pix of my new sea-going talisman ring... Courtesy of Joel Harlow's creativity (POTC Make up Guru) And inside I am having inscribed: "I AM the Sea" Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!

Way kewl! ...schooners, islands, and maroons and buccaneers and buried gold... You can do everything right, strictly according to procedure, on the ocean, and it'll still kill you.

Capt Grey Posted March 17, 2007 Posted March 17, 2007 My compliments to the artisan, Bess. That is indeed fine workmanship. A fine treasure indeed. :) Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.

HarborMaster Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Iron Bess that is such an awesome ring.,it looks like 2 ounces of solid silver back hand jack slappin' ring ! thats quite a sea going statement ya got there.,have ya got it yet? I got one kind of like it., mine is very heavily re-enfored across the bottom ., kind of a bar i had welded across the bottom., so it will take banging around concrete.,coral and scuba tanks., that stuff gives my rings a beating., so I get them buffed up when I have them made. I will try to post a pic when I can. Anyway WOW I really like your ring !!! Mine isnt wearing a tricorn . I am not Lost .,I am Exploring.

Iron Bess Posted April 6, 2007 Author Posted April 6, 2007 Aye, I do have it now and 'tis on m'finger this very moment. (Seldom off of it) Yes indeedy... I'd love to see a pic of your ring. Post one soon as you can.... Here is another picture, less clear but from another angle. The ring was sculpted and cast by Joel Harlow who did all the make-up for Bootstrap Bill and several others. I really DO love it and have no shame in admitting it. Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!
LadyBarbossa Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 Oooooo... Bess! Tis fantastic and lovely! I'd say I'm jealous.. but I'm more envious! I'm drooling! Tis a fine ring. Was about to ask where the hell you obtained it from so I could get one, too! Oh, well. Honestly, I'm just awaiting copies or replicas of Barbossa's ring. Been wanting one since the 1st film. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!

Janette Morgan Posted May 6, 2007 Posted May 6, 2007 Aye, them be some remarkable pieces of workmanship there. Say, 'Bess, how - hypothetically speaking - might a less-connected sort of person be getting a piece of custom jewelry like that? Be it possible? *is drooling muchly*
HildeKitten Posted May 7, 2007 Posted May 7, 2007 that's awesome! i got a johnny ring. I have that one too, but not the master replica, the other one with the smaller stone that comes in different sizes. House of Secrets Incorporated Fashion and costume design For all your piracy needs
Janette Morgan Posted May 8, 2007 Posted May 8, 2007 Ahh, there be some beautiful pieces of craftsmanship. And at such... lofty prices, too. I were afraid of that. Guess I'll have to find bearings to his headquarters and plunder me one.
