That's a red flag @ 25/g. probably scrap gold.Man what jeweler is selling 14k for $25 a gram (today), scrap 14k is already 23.6 grams by itself so how would he make any real profit worth his time

Priced a 30in 14k 10mm Cuban at about 220 grams for $6600, that's cheaper than I've seen online on say daniel's website but is that a good overall price or can those specs be found cheaper?
Good price, but i would spend a lil more to get a great price.
220/$6600 = 30 a g.
370/$9250 = 25 a g.
The difference would be
150/$2650 = 17.66 a g
So, basically by spending a lil bit more ($2650) you stand to clean up really well for yourself. I'd take the extra 150 grams at 17.66 a g FOR SURE
The gold itself is still good to use over and over but it has to be refined first (Separated from the alloy) which i don't think jewelers do. When melting down multiple pieces of scrap 14k gold you end up mixing alloys (Since all jewelers don't use the same alloy) and it causes issues with color and porosity.Actually according to
http://www.goldcalc.com/scrap_gold_value.php
Its 23ish a gram for 14k gold.
Fellas remember gold is a element (cant be destroyed or created), scrap gold or new gold...**** dont matter, as long as its certified 14k.
I thought chew might like that one, didn't you make a piece in the style of Ethiopian iconography? I don't feel that it's the worse jesus piece ever either and it's pretty much one of a kind. It looks like there should be more contrast between the crown of thorns and top of jesus head though. Notice how on most of the Jacob & Co pieces in the catalog this area usually isn't monochrome. another problem with the IF & CO piece is how the crown and hair on top of jesus head look too similar, on Jacob & Co pieces the crown is a mean piece of barb wire and jesus head is just a couple rows of diamonds and it works.
i personally like that IF&Co Jesus. still doesn't have eyebrows though
1000000% agree on that.... He also had Jacob do most of his jewels and lorraine schwartz do a lot of his rings and bracelets.Pharrell did it better.
Plus the colours on his were more vibrant.
What did you pay ?I just ordered a 18k 28 inch 183 gram Miami Cuban from REY. Very good people , I can't say enough about them .
I will post a picture when I get it, as expected
How many mm?
