"adjustable" sterling silver rings by
porkchops
How exactly are these made adjustable? Couldn't that be stressing on
the sterling bands? Sorry if this is a stupid question.

"created diamond" by
Lawrence
Out of all the diamond simulants out there....is there a "best kind/type"?
As has been pointed out, "created diamond" would suggest a true synthetic, which
is actually diamond, just man made. These, of course are best in terms of
duplicating the properties and appearance of natural diamonds. ...

"created diamond" by
Lawrence
Hi.
Out of all the diamond simulants out there....is there a "best kind/type"?
all of them tout that their diamond simulant is better than others, or how
close it resembles a real diamond so closely, etc etc.

Fashioning beauty
It doesn't take a professional to make a bracelet, ring or brooch. The
local Beadazzled chain offers classes in jewelry making, as do the Art
League in Alexandria and Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts in
Annapolis.

"Golden Mean Guage"? by

I've been looking for examples of these on internet and so far only
have found one place that makes them(for lots of $). I wondered if
there had been anyone in the past who had a similar instrument but have
found nothing. What did the Greeks use?

I have a ring that was in my father's very unusual jewelry collection.
It has a large center oval diamond about .75 carat (probably faux) and
8 very small diamonds around it. The ring is very large with engraving
on the sides. On the inside it says, "It's a Micheal!", 20k and there
is a serial...

"Scratch Resistant"? by
Darren Harris
Can anyone advise me on how to know whether a scratch resistant bezel
is really scratch resistant.
The last several watches I picked up that were supposed to have
"scratch resistant" bezels turn out to scratch as easily as any other
watch.
Evidently the term "scratch resistant" means very...

"shattered" pieces of gold or silver? (maybe question for Peter) by
Bob Edwards
I'm trying to come up with a technique for making small bits of gold
or silver with the appearance of weathered stone blocks, broken stone,
etc., but on a jewelry-sized scale. Which "bits" would then be
granulated onto a backing piece. We are talking small enough "bits"
that casting them from wax...

"transforming" a chain by
m4816k
I have a curb chain that I think is a bit too long. I came up with an idea
of transforming it in a singapore chain, cause I'd like it to keep the
weight and a similar "link" look, with a minimum work done on it (so I don't
want to just shorten it). Is that possible to do (and is it...

$1,000.00 Wish List by
Raane
Let me put it another way....
If your budget to set up a jewelry studio (initially) was one thousand
dollars - which is about what I have - what would you buy?
My main interest, at this point is metalwork - silver, copper brass.
I like the work of Sydney Lynch among others.
So, how can I make do,...
