'Hidden Detail' Rings

For my next project, I plan to make a series of rings that are mini sculptures or pieces of art. They will be 'mini sculptures' in the sense that they are interesting when off the body and have detail from all angles, not just the top view.

Because I will be using the Ocean (coral, shells etc) I want to focus on the idea that its surface is so plain and almost boring, yet below it is a world that is so complex and removed from ours. I will work this concept into my rings by playing with settings and differents stones, so the top view will be simple, and most of the detail will be on the underside of the ring and the shank.
