The 'Ring Mold' has been used for centuries to make marbles and paperweights. This classic tool has been updated with the use of graphite for the ring. This lightweight tool makes it easy to produce a round marble or paperweight. Suitable for both lampworkers and furnace workers.
Unlike the standard spherical marble mold, one that is capable of only producing one size marble, these ring molds can be used to produce a marble (or paperweight) withing a range of sizes.
Each mold consists of a ring of graphite attached to a hardwood handle (a 5-1/2" long handle for the smaller molds, and 12" long handle for the larger ones). The graphite ring has a bevel face, providing the contact surface with which to shape your marble.
