    Tiffany & Co. sells a ring of woven wiRe: 

    http://www.tiffany.com/images/products/zoom_images/16429996_xl.jpg 

    On the inside of the ring is a small, flat disk engraved with
    "T&Co." and a karat mark. 

    Being a weaver, I am curious as to how this was constructed. I can
    see that the weft is one wire, with its two ends soldered together
    and hidden under the disk, but I can't figure out how they managed
    to hide all the warp end(s) and still get the weave so tight! Any
    ideas? 

Janet
