The word Christmas is derived from the middle English – Christemasse and from old English – cristes maesse. It is a contraction meaning Christ’s mass. The holiday is characterized by the exchange of Christmas gifts among friends and family members, some of the unique gifts being attributed to Santa Clause, also know as Father Christmas or Saint Nicholas. This jovial fellow arrives on Christmas Eve on a sleigh pulled by a reindeer, and lands on the roofs of houses. He then climbs down the chimney and leaves gifts for the children in their Christmas stocking , and eats the food they leave for him.

The interior of a home may be decorated with garlands and evergreen foliage, particularly holly and mistletoe. In many countries, business, schools, and communities have Christmas parties and dances in the weeks before Christmas. Christmas pageants may include a retelling of the birth of Christ. Groups may visit neighbourhood homes to sing Christmas carols

Stage 4: Polishing phase of Trinity Knot Celtic Engagement ring

December 13th, 2011

Watch as polisher for Shanore, Paddy puts the finishing touches to our Trinity Knot Celtic engagement ring.

 

The final stage of the manufactoring process for the Celtic engagement ring is the polishing phase. Our polisher Paddy starts by using a narrow bristle to clean out the head of the ring. This small bristle is able to get right  in behind the claw setting. Next Paddy uses a polishing mop to remove any major roughness from the shank and also to smooth out the head. In order the ensure the side of the celtic ring is flat and smooth, Paddy next uses a side belt, the sides of the celtic engagement are placed up against this firm belt. Finally, a rouge mop is used to give the celtic engagement ring it’s overall polish or “rouge”.

Shanore’s master craftsman, Donal works on setting the diamond into the base of a Celtic Trinity Knot engagement ring.

 

The third stage of the Celtic engagement ring manufacturing process is the setting phase. Donal the setter, first measures the diamond size. The mount is adjusted to suit the size of the diamond. When he is happy the fit is correct, he inserts the diamond and pushes the prongs over the surface. This is a delicate operation as Donal must maintain a level position for the diamond. To achieve this, he will push each claw bit by bit. He will start with one claw and move down to the claw in the opposite position. when all the claws are down securely, each prong is individually filed to ensure there is no gap between it and the diamond. They are then rounded up.

 

The next and last stage is the polishing stage.
