Heraldic Jewelry


By Visitor - Posted on 18 July 2006

For the past 20 years my hobby has been making and designing jewelry in all phases. Recently checking a few web sites such as www.heraldaria.com and www.myhistories.com/searchpage.htm I have been able to locate the coat of arms for many of my friends and my own last name and have personally created rings, pendants, tie tack and cuff links all with the family crest.

If ever have inquired in magazines or jewelry stores, their prices are out of this world. Because I have many connections in the jewelry making and sales I can save you plenty of money if you're interested in such jewelry.

The initial carving is not cheap because it requires the art work to be scanned and the duplicated with the use of a computer that actually carves the wax mold.
The price for such a job cost $20 per hour (and that is my wholesale price) each product varies in time but the finished product is well worth it. After the initial wax carving is made then is casted in gold any karat that you desire, or silver. If you want several rings made a rubber mold (vulcanization) is created for about $35 and then you can cast as many rings as you would like and cut the cost.

I can recycle your gold or you can pay for the gold at current world price. Since you may not trust me with you money or gold maybe I can show some of my work at the get together in Salk Lake city. Francisco
