    Rose cuts are making a comeback. I’ve always loved the way they look. Many years ago I inherited a huge mine cut diamond which I had put into a heavy gold ring. A grader from the GIA told me that it was probably cut before 1800. I love it and wear it all the time.

    Rose cut stones have a special ace in my heart... About 23 years ago I inherited my grandmother's engagement/wedding set. A jeweler did a minor repair and asked me the history of the well worn set. Then he told me that based on the style and rose cut center diamond on the engagement ring that the set was more likely HER grandmother's set, dated cir. 1900. (She wasn't born until 1919)
    I am hoping one day to have the set restored (center diamond is very loose because prongs need retipping, plus the set was soldered together and due to wear and that many fine details have been worn away/hidden). More likely will pass it down to someone in the family who will be able to get that done. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 to the Goldsmith.

    This is so cool! Have you ever done a video on ring maintenance? I got engaged in August. My ring is from 1910(ish), and an emerald, which I know are particularly soft. I just have no idea how I need to maintain it. There are also 6 very tiny diamonds in a platinum halo around the diamond which I’ve been told will need to keep an eye on because they could get lost easily. I just have no idea who to even go to about this? Or how often that needs to happen?

      Of you find a goldsmith or jeweler in your city, they can clean and polish it for you! I would say do this no more than once a year because polishing does remove a small amount of your jewelry but makes it shiny and brand new looking :)

    • @Shock_Treatment
      @Shock_Treatment Před 3 lety +1

      It's probably because the cut is hundreds of years old and from a time when gem cutting techniques weren't nearly as good as they are now. It's also not as attractive as a gem, normally a diamond, with many facets because having lots of facets allows for more light play and colors. However, I like the cut, and I think it looks good on any stone, even if there is not as much light play. I particularly like it on black spinel and other black gems.

    As a jeweller myself, I might recommend you use less solder on your joins, and make your claws the right length before filing them a few times ( just to save excess gold going to lemel) I also think the claws are just slightly too thick for the ring design. (Constructive criticism I love your videos!)

    I have a question for you. I have a beautiful eight carat tanzanite set with diamonds all around. I would like very much to enhance the color a bit. It is in the Violet range of colors. Is this something that can be done once the ring is set? Thank you. I also have a lovely ring that consists of my grandmother's two engagement diamonds, my mom's half carat diamond, and a few chips. I might possibly have some other diamonds around and was wondering if we could speak about the possibility of making something modern out of it. They are all set in one ring and I don't dislike the setting but it has broken. It's also a bit big for the top of my finger so I thought maybe we could talk and we might be able to come up some ideas. Right now the priority is finding out if I can treat the untreated tanzanite. Thank you.

    • @catzkeet4860
      @catzkeet4860 Před 2 lety +1

      I know this is late but a wire braid is easy. Just use a lighter gauge than here and make sure your wire is well annealed, and re-anneal as needed. You can put the ends in a vice, a pin vice or a spring clip to hold them. The braid can be as tight or loose as you want. This is wire....it stays where it’s put. Obviously the smaller the gauge the tighter it can be braided. When you have enough braid, measure what you need (using a ring mandrel), cut, solder, and finish.
