Bubble Ring in Platinum & 18ct Yellow Gold | Goldsmith’s Workshop Secrets

This week we go through the making of what is sometimes referred to as a Boodles ring or a bubble ring. We have created our own version of this style. Making a ring using existing and sentimental jewellery with diamonds coming from the clients family etc We LOVE this type of project where we get to make something so full of meaning.
We have a few factors that the we cannot negotiate, practically, we have the customers finger size, the style they’re looking for and the materials they’ve provided. We get to make the magic happen that pulls all these elements together.
There’s a kind of organised randomness to a piece like this, there needs to be balance within imbalance. I loved it, the client loved it and we’d love to know what you think?
If you’re new here, welcome! We make jewellery making tutorial videos for jewellery enthusiasts, jewellers and anyone who is interested in the many ways things are made in this workshop.
I’ve been in the trade and working with jewellery for over thirty years now and we’ve started this channel to share knowledge and experience in the hopes that it helps anyone out there who is looking for this information. We post a video WEEKLY - so if you like this kind of thing, why not consider subscribing and hit the notification bell so that you never miss a beat.

Anyways! Thanks for tuning in this week and we (Damia and myself) hope you’ve had a wonderful weekend and we’ll see you on Sunday for another episode of Goldsmith’s Workshop Secrets.
A little note! I was using EASY solder (not platinum easy) on the shot with the binding wire. 🙏

Lovely design and execution.

That's one very unusual looking design. The temporary stone placement with beeswax is genius. Thanks for sharing and have a great week.
