What's always blown my mind about this video is that he's able to set these stones easily with a simple bench pin rather than an engraving/setting vise. That takes real skill.
agreed.
Practice it , the amount off control you gain over the workpiece is well worth the efford. I seldomly work with vices or Grs benchmates while setting
Real jewelers don't need all that fancy stuff.
Thanks for taking the time to show this. Really cool to watch👌
THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL FRIKKIN THINGS I'VE EVER SEEN. IN MY LIFE!
His fingers said it all.... Craftsmanship 💍
Watching a true craftsman never gets old, I wish I could afford his work!🙏
Thank you Curtis! We love to try and work with our customers and within their budget. We can give out free estimates if you are interested!
Jorge you do fantastic work and I know what it take to make a ring of that caliper. When I was in my teen years I use to work for a woman who use to sell jewelry. I'm 62 now and my eyes are not what they use to be. Thank You for sharing and bringing the memory's.
This is a great video. We own the largest jewelry and watch repair shops in the US and are always looking for great talent to join our team of professional and talented jewelers. If you are interested or know of a jeweler that is interested in moving to CA or CT we will be glad to interview them. Thank you for sharing the great process of Invisible set!!! Congratulations on your talent.
If we hear of anyone we will gladly recommend them
Fantastic workmanship. I hope more people can appreciate just how much skill is involved in this. Thanks for sharing.
Jorge - this was brilliant! Thank you very much for sharing your artistic talents - it's a generous thing to do. I live a thousand miles away, but as Chicago is my old home town, if I ever get back there I hope to come and meet you. With Best Regards......Ski
That ring is gorgeous. Wow I am amazed at how shiny it got! What a beauty.
Great work! Methodical and well organized. Thanks for sharing, and I'll remember you when I need invisible work done.
This video inspired me so much 7 years ago, so many techniques picked up here alone. Still not capable of this, one day with the right people around. My boss literally told me that a ring didn't need to buffed before setting, or the inside of the ring and porosity was just a part of the business because he didn't have the time to fill it in. Ain't going to let him ruin my reputation, at the same time I'm killing myself working with someone with no standards, and have to leave my family to get a "real" Jewelers job. Literally have 13 custom builds in the box, in a town with only 2 "proper" bench Jewelers. Love this job, hate the people i work with and the owners who enable this bs.
Wow, absolutely beautiful. I love how it looks after plating. Wow
You are a true artist. Wow and I was proud of my coin ring.
Brilliant! Very skillfully done.
Love watching this,beautifully made,And that would so fit me, because of my small hands. Keep up this kind of work.
FYI....I recently discovered that chlorine in tap water over time can contaminate your rhodium solution creating foggy or milky plating. If this happens to you sometimes....having a distilled water dipping jar handy to use between rinsing under the tap will solve this problem and make your solution last longer. Thanks for sharing this video....I only offer this as a gesture in return...you obviously know what you are doing.

I would suggest getting a Berky water filtration system, with the Fluoride filter.
I sit here quite coincidentally as I watch this amazing craftsman, wearing a 2 ct invisible set diamond ring that I have long taken for granted. Boy does this change my perception of how amazing this workmanship really is. Loved watching your skilled hands. Total admiration. Thank you for posting this.
Cheers George,A brilliant video and i immensely enjoyed it, an absolute Pleasure.
Wow wow very beautiful job
That is super impressive. I've been thinking of dabbling in the field of jewellery making, and this video has been a big source of inspiration!
Very nice video!
Perfect! Very beautiful.
It is channel set. He used the hammer handpiece to lock in the baguettes on both sides before he installed the princess cuts.
I liked how he used the wax to hold all the stones in through the backside when he hammered down the outer edge of the ring to secure the princess cuts.
I wouldn't have the guts to use a wheel bur to trim back the hammered edge like he did before melting the wax since I'd be afraid of damaging the stones.
This job would be so satisfying, I need to do this
Beautiful work 😀
fantasic work ....
the ring!
Ahhh very clever way of stopping the stones rattling around when hammering. I might try that next time
Yes the shellac holds it nicely without damaging the diamond while setting!
😆 a video of someone intricately working; while the song " Somebody's Watching Me " by Rockwell is playing....
What a financial jewwellery well done
Very very beautiful !!!
Respect ... you are an artist :)
Good work! Thanks for the video!
Nice work
Really hardwork 🙏
Beautiful
Now I know am a joke.! Powerful video
Keep practicing, no one starts off a pro! I hope the video helps. I know we made this many years ago and we love to show more videos in the future with commentary!
Electroplating looks fun 👀
wow. impressive.
That's very nice
Very beautiful nice 👌
Anyone else realize that at about 1:53 MJ sings "Somebody's watching meee"
Hah because we ARE
C_Marnoff MJ doesn't sing that -__-
That's not Michael Jackson xD
Bellísimo !! 👏
Parabéns pelo trabalho!!
nice job
Nice .. I just remenber 47 St. in NY
Perfect...
Bravo 👏🏻
Excellent
Gorgeous
Thank you!
Invisible set is when the stone have a channel cut into the girdle and it clips side by side on a metal rail no hammering is needed, what is done here is just simply a channel set
wrong....the last step in invisible setting still require compressing the metal into the gems groove to set permanently. He does this to the center row of diamonds first because he has clearance to use his hand-piece without the outer two row of diamonds in place to interfere or risk breakage. Some do this by hand with a wooden stick or bamboo skewer after all the diamonds are in place....a master like this can accomplish the same thing and still control the tool with a hand-piece as he does because it's simply faster and with even more control. the outside perimeter only butts up against metal and is done the same as channel setting but that is the only similarity. Your not very observant.
nice job A+
this was dope
Dazzling.
Wowieee! That is BEEEEAUTIFUL! So when you are polishing and grinding you do not have to worry about hitting the diamonds because they are so hard that nothing can harm them?? I worked with you guys and you are AWESOME and do EXTRAORDINARY work!
Excellent from thailand😃
Master craftsman
flawless
Perfect.
Hi Jorge,
That is a wonderful job, I would like to know if you made it or if you have more videos. Thanks a lot
Ed
Master craftsman.
milo ligons thank you
giorgi you are megas !
wonderful
Super Nice.
Amazing these do not just come out of a KinderEi.
Fantastic skills there...thanks for sharing! Ps - hope some mamma doesn't bring it in to be sized lol
did jorge moves his cilinder burr across the princess cut diamonds in order to straighten the edges? you are fearless!!
i have never managed to keep a level surface when grinding with a abrasive disc like that. it sure looks like its working lightning fast! and all this without a microscope!!
Jorge can you please make more videos showing how you make the ring from beginning to end?
yo consco ese edificio compraba mis erramientas en Sep tools. habia un moreno que es joyero creo que su taller se llama morgan jeweler. tambien recuerdo house of finding. takbien ya me acorde de martel jewelry. victor el lapidario. saludos desde mexico hasta 5 south wabas.
I have a question: if im casting a ring should I cut the holes for the stones in the wax then cast it, or should I cast the ring then cut the holes out for the stones? I would be using baguettes and but them up agenst each other similar to what you did. thank you :)
This was very cool to watch; I've not seen invisible setting nor rhodium plating in action before.
I'm still a bit unclear how the stones are all held in place with no metal between them. I couldn't quite tell what was being hammered on after the baguettes were set in place.
For future videos I might recommend some audio instructions, if possible.
Helpfull great job ! Turn your volume down for this one folks
Off to try my hand on some 2mm princess sapphires on a st silv bracelet If I screw it up it was free. practice makes perfect.there's no perfect practice.
This was reallt good. What grits did you use to polish the ring? I feel like you used multiple machines and grits?
master craftsman
Beutifull job
Where do you get your casting metal and stones from? I really want to get into jewelry making.
Hi Jorge i'm jeweler from México, one suggestion, is Lost time polish one two three the ring, ir You polish one and for all You will save a Lot of time. Greetings from México

Какая красота!
chingon paisa somos los mejores
Мне бы руки оторвали за такую полировку и родирову!!!
Respect.
Sick!
you have a large skilled
nice!
MashAllah bhot acha km h
what metal 18 ct ,14 ct and how long did it take to set
Trabajas de la misma forma en la que trabajan los engarzadores en Argentina! Pregunta: laspiedras tienen que estar talladas especialmente para este tipo de engarce, no? Gracias por el video! Espectacular!
Gracias por ver el video! Sí, las piedras tienen que estar ranuradas a los lados. Las barras entre el montaje mantienen esas piedras en sus lugares. El conjunto final está martillando los lados para mantenerlos a todos en su lugar.
Muchas gracias por compartir la bendición del Padre del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo estén en tu vida y todos los tuyos gracias buen día bendiciones 😅😅😅😊😊😊Colombia cristo te bendiga siempre y te sientas feliz recibelo en tu corazón
the stones aint straight, the princess cut different sizes?
I like to see more on gypsy settings
We love to show some more videos of jewelry in the near future. Check back!
I have been a 3rd generation jeweler and X diamond setter for more than 40 years and this is not exactly crap but can only be done this way if you have done the exact same ring many times before and the stones are perfectly calibrated for the particular job. I did my business when this was hardly ever the case. No two jobs were ever the same and the stones were NEVER perfectly calibrated. I made my living from turning a pile of nonsense into a work of art that hardly anyone in Hatton Garden/ the world could do or would even attempt. Working on this kind of work would have been children's play by comparison requiring very little real skill or indeed thinking. Suffice to say I made so much money performing miracles for 12 years I set myself up for life and have been a manufacturer watching other people work ever since. Benchwork is mugs work. Make money fast while you are young and healthy, then get off of that bench as soon as possible before it kills you at an early age, as it did both my father and grandfather.
It's ten years later and both links to your websites do not work. FYI
Beautiful work.
The baguettes looks like are channel set but what is holding the side of the princess ones towards the baguettes if they are not grooved? Or they are on that side?
It is invisible set
Perfeito
hola jorge, me gustaría me enviarás tips para biselar una circonia de gota 10x7... gracias de antemano.
Jorge, I'm looking for invisible diamond setting expert to set some ring with princess cut diamonds; Can you help me with that Sir?
What were you doing at the end when you dipped in 2 solutions?
Was that rhodium or platinum plating?
That step is called rhodium plating, and gives it a bright coating to the metal. It can be done to gold and platinum!
Olá, eu sou engastador de diamantes e fiquei deslembrado com o processo de engaste, obrigado pela dica
Wow how much does it cost?
Hello You Might upload a video of jacketed rings with stones thanks
tu si sabes
