About Stratabands
We are pleased to annouce that Stratabands has been honered with the MJSA Innovation award for 2008.
Stratabands is the new patterned metal wedding ring line from recognized mokume-gane artists James Binnion and Steve Midgett. These award winning designers have decades in patterned metal as masters celebrated for their fine art and specialties in mokume-gane wedding bands.
Steve and James founded XPM Corporation to develop a new high tech process to make patterned metals affordable and in combinations previously thought to be impossible. The XPM process enables new patterns and ring shapes and generates the perfect bond needed to join dissimilar metals. Most importantly, the new XPM process greatly increases the availability of designer patterned metals and dramatically reduces cost.
The Stratabands line is both a reflection of years of refinement in the XPM process as well as the stylistic pairing of two Mokume-gane masters working in an all new medium. Each Strataband ring is ultimately crafted from methods that span ages and incorporates the best of modern technology. The process may have been years in the making, but this is the first time the XPM material has ever been offered for sale.
