A method of forming a substantially annular article comprising providing a first annular element 120R; providing a second annular element 130R having an inner diameter that is greater than an outer diameter of the first element; positioning the second annular element around the first annular element; and rolling the first annular element with the second annular element until a diameter of the first annular element has increased sufficiently to trap the second annular element. The inner element may have a circumferential groove 125 in its outer surface to trap the second element. The article may be worn around the wrist or finger, and so may be a bracelet or a ring. The elements may be formed from a precious metal such as gold, silver or platinum. The first element may have a number of circumferential grooves, with an annular element in each. The annular element may be formed by cutting from a tube, or by pressing a blank from a sheet and forming a tube element by coning. |
