   That ring looks awesome! I love how the little gold shapes reach and stretch from one stone to the next.

   That is lovely. I have some old jewelry that I don’t know what to do with, a really old Chinese yellow gold bracelet that I had when I was a baby, the gold is so soft and at some point it’s lost its catch, not that it would fit me these days anyway! I’m always wondering what I can do with it to make it wearable again, seems such a shame.

    For anyone who thinks this is easy, IT’S NOT. I tried once, miserably, to make jewelry. I failed. Everything looked terrible, the lines were fuzzy, and those rotary machines freaked me out. After seeing your lovely designs, I’m convinced: you’re a genius.

    I know this is old….but did you read the article on gold in the National Geographic?
    Pretty fascinating stuff…like all the gold that has ever been mined in history would only fill two olympic size swimming pools. huh!

    Iron Chic, I never read that article, though I meant to. I’ll have to look online.

    Duchesse, I should note that doing something like this can be much more expensive than buying a ready-made piece. For custom work, I’m doing a one-of-a-kind design and the customer pays for the design work directly. If you buy from my inventory, I’ve already paid for the design work. It’s couture vs ready-made. I recommend this kind of project for people who have emotional attachments to particular gems or metals, not for people who want to be thrifty.

    Other peeps, I’m glad you like it. Wait till you see it with the other two rings.

    this ring is gorgeous.

    i wish i had “known” you before. i had a family heirloom “disappear” from a VERY reputable jeweler. they refuse to take responsibility for it and accused of us taking the jewels back and claiming we didn’t. now we’re gonna end up in a lawsuit w/them. but what pisses me off the most is that we lost a very precious family heirloom. oh well…
