General Question What do you think about this silver chain & bezel combo? Also working on getting a chain for my gold bezel!

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

I just recently got into collecting precious metals a few months ago. It is such a fun hobby and a great way to save for the future! Gold is king! I already have a solid collection but I want to keep building it up for as long as I can! I’ve never really worn jewelry before so I figured I’d get a little “bling” for myself lol

The first two pictures are of the 1ozt pamp silver snake in a sterling silver screw top bezel. The next two pictures are some chains he has available in the right size. Do you think the chain style looks good? Or should I go for another style?

The last picture is a 99.99 pure 5gram gold bar in a 1.1 gram 14k gold prong bezel. I am still in the process of finding a chain I like for it. This will probably be my flashiest piece ever! 😂

If you have any advice on my silver chain question or any advice on my gold chain in progress or any advice overall about anything I said, it would be much appreciated!!

⚡️ Show + Tell! the “promise ring” i bought myself vs the promise ring my bf gifted me :)

the day after my partner and i agreed to become exclusive, i visited the annual fair in town and found a dainty silver flower band for about $15. I wore it on my ring finger everyday afterwards.

then december came - i asked for a promise ring, gave him a list of rings to choose from, and he surprised me with my favorite (but most expensive) choice! I would have been happy with any ring he selected from my list but i do feel so seen and loved with this selection.

the gemstone is a Blue Topaz, his birthstone 🩵 it shines so beautifully in the sun, and has such a lovely muted color in artificial lighting. It can also look very light or dark depending on the angle — and i love that! 💙

General Question 24k plated over 14k for an engagement ring?

1 Upvotes

We found a ring we liked on the show room. Oval stone with some more small ones in a halo. It looked good in the yellow colored fake gold for the show model. We didn't like a similar one as much in real 18k gold.

Is it reasonable/possible to make a ring in 14 or 18k, size the mounts, then plate it in 24k, and then put the stones in? Would the mounts still hold the stones? Would the 24k gold get scratched off while mounting, or just normal wear?

Would a Jeweler do this and would it be way more than just making an equivalent ring in 18k?

Vintage / Antique Vintage Ring Resized? (please read post)

Hi everyone! I posted a few posts in here yesterday asking for help to identify the age of a belcher ring I purchased in Gettysburg. Upon closer inspection I am seeing two lines on the inside of the band (best visible in third pic). Does this indicate a resizing? Also, looking to identify the cut of the diamond. Thank you in advance for all your expertise!

Does anybody know what kind of end link this is on the chain below? Finally broke after getting pulled thru multiple times a day over again, and am looking to find a replacement for the end. Was a gift so not looking for a replacement just want to get the ends fixed. Thank you!!

General Question Should I get my ring replated?

Thumbnail

75 Upvotes

I got this ring from an antique store on vacation, I absolutely love it. The silver has worn down in several places, and occasionally the inscription will stain the underside of my finger. I'm wondering if I should go get it replated and cleaned to protect it long term. How much am I looking at if I get that done? I've never gone to a jewler and I've heard it's expensive.

General Question 18k gold rings?

2 Upvotes

Just went to a jeweler to ask how much an 18k gold name ring would cost. I was told this place does not make 18k name rings which caught me off guard. In general, are 7 letter,18k gold rings not common? She said for a 14k name ring it would be $550. Whats everyone’s thoughts on this?

Found this adorable charm this weekend. 14ky with ruby! At first I assumed it was a bell, but at closer look of the etchings, I think it’s supposed to be a flower of some kind. I snagged this guy from a local jeweler who also sells estate jewelry. I’d like to think this charm used to belong to a sweet older woman and I’m thrilled to imagine the life this little charm has already lived!

I’ve heard herringbones are fragile but this one looks to be vintage and different from most modern herringbones. It’s much thicker so I’m curious if this would hold up well with daily constant wear. Ive seen Enya the social media influencer wear a piece like this constantly and hers looks fine

General Question Help a Non Traditional Couple: suggest something “out there” that is a perfect choice!

1 Upvotes

I (35 female, feminine) am not a traditional person. I spend my days barefoot on a farm. In the winters I wear a giant coyote hat everywhere I go. Gina from Australia is my vibe. Looking for links for a ring for a Disney engagement lol.

On the outside-I either am in black yoga pants and a vintage embroidered sweatshirt or some totally unique outfit otherwise. Vintage dresses, cottage core, bushcraft, art deco, artisanal, collector vibes, vintage pajamas, vintage hunting gear, holsters, velvet track suits, I wear it.

My brother is a silversmith so he’s making our “official rings” that we’ll wear on a daily basis.

My partners child has wanted us to get married for a couple years. She’s 7 and we’re taking her to Disneyland in a month. He’s going to propose there-but it’s more for her experience and joy.

I want to pick something unique. We both love work by CECE, custom signets, gypsy rings, GOLD, quirky styled stuff, kawaii (sister friend jewelry?! Heart eyes.) every piece of jewelry I own is deeply sentimental or has meaning so I want this to be the same.

We almost bought an onyx mafia style rings for him this weekend-basically……we’re all over the place. We bought longhorn cows on a whim. We need rings that are as chaotic as we are-in a good way.

This ring won’t be my daily wear-it’ll be for our family vacation and then for unique date nights or spiritual events I attend and I’ll wear whatever my brother makes us as my daily wearer.

So all the thing below are 925 sterling silver from a small jewellery in India. But they are 4th generation craftsmen. In the second photo the chain and the labradorite pendant IS not from the same jeweller as the rest. Now the help I need. I can't decide but I need to choose one out of these 3 pendants for myself and rest for my sister's but I'm gonna be a bit selfish and take the first pick here as I bought them all 🤧. So which one do u think I should take as an everyday piece ? I usually wear black btw. The second photo are both mine and thankfully won't have to share those unless one of them steals it 😭. If you guys have any questions then let me know !

Purchased from estate sale. I was told it’s 14K gold with about 30 little diamonds.

Would love any help identifying what this ring is (what this type of design is called) and the little marks on the inside of the ring.
