<item_type_metadata:technique>Cutting and Mechanical Shaping of Raw Jet:
The jet piece is cut with a diamond disc saw, giving it an approximate shape. Then, a tungsten carbide bur or rotary tools are used to define the final shape, removing excess material and refining the details. Finally, the piece is sanded with coarse to fine grit sandpaper to smooth the surface and prepare it for polishing.Preparation of the Polished Black Opal: A polished black opal is selected with a suitable shape to be set in the silver ring. Using coated-tip pliers or a nylon hammer, light pressure is applied to secure the opal in place. Assembly and Final Finishing: A hole is drilled on one side of the jet piece to attach the ring with the black opal, and a small silver jump ring is used to allow the ring to move freely.</item_type_metadata:technique>
<item_type_metadata:material source>The jet is local but the silver and the opalo are foreing</item_type_metadata:material source>
<item_type_metadata:conecept>The piece is associated with the Asturian tradition of jet craftsmanship and its use in women's jewelry</item_type_metadata:conecept>
