Raised spot on ribbon ring ?

[Douglas 5]

Amongst the Otto Schinkle I have 3 - 2 not magnetic and 1 magnetic .
One of them has a raised area on the ribbon ring .
Strange looking ...... so I ask any way --- I do not think it is a marking - who knows .

Sanya has this maker and so do others ... lets see what the say .

Hi Douglas,

It’s excess solder from when the ring ends were connected.

Ok ... just a hot -drip- pressed onto a flat surface then .

I would have thought excess solder too. Very interesting pattern on it

Hí my friend sorry the late answer

Interesting pictures of the ring joints .
Looking at my ring again ... there is no solder used . Seams to be the same material as the ring is made of .
The majority of makers just heated up the touching ends and just pressed them together . As can be seen on some of yours here -
applying too much pressure makes the ends ' lip over ' ! The only 2 companies I have seen using a solder material are :
Juncker - brass brazing and solder material for ribbon rings - - and Juncker and W&L using a 'grey' solder material to close the jump ring to the frame .
It just seams too much material in an elongated shape to be a drip - looks added ? The ring is the same size as the other 2 I have .
What comes to mind - stamping/pressing some thing into it that did not work or melting off a ring that started off too large ?
Still have to find out what the core is made of ... tricky on this one .
