@@winny94mc Yeah. As evidenced in the video, the only machines really used were an electric drill and one of those machines that make a wire. Both of these steps could have easily been replaced by working with hand tools only, but why waste working time when you can easily save money using 'em?
Also, the gold back then actually was closer to 22-23K. So with the handworking, it was as strong as the 14K of today and with none of the street fracturing or lack of longevity issues. Did I say how much better the 20K+ looks than 14K?
I don’t think so. He used 2 ounce pure gold, that’s like 5k cad dollars. The craftsmanship is only about 10% of that só about 500 for a days work but he had to sell it to now.

One more question, i was aiming to buy 70 gram pure silver bar and make it to a link chain, would it be durable enough if i make the chain to 950 silver( 5% copper) or 925 silver(7%copper) ? Can you tell me whether 950 silver is also durable for jewelry?
It's actually easily possible. As you can see in the video, pure gold is extremely soft and malleable - probably the easiest metal to make jewelery out of. It's not durable at all, though, that's why it's usually diluted with silver and copper to harden it.
There were zero trust issues with teamwork and 100 percent confidence with every hammer strike, torching, and filing it down all without protective gear.
Goldsmiths use very little protective gear. It would mostly get in the way. Basically it's safety goggles when working with acid and a dust mask if sanding bigger surfaces. That's it. Gloves greatly reduce your grip and dexterity.
The price for this at retail is likely to be at least $10,000, could be as much as $15,000. When you take advantage of craftsmanship like this, the value of the gold is not the largest part of the cost.

If 1 oz of 99% pure gold is about US$1,900, what would the price of that piece of jewelry go for? I'm curious how much om the artists add to the final price tag.
Nice work. I have never seen a clasp design like that. I have seen many Gold videos, and own many pieces, but never seen a clasp like this ever. I love it my man
Wtf kind of sorcery is this?! How did it go from looking like a sloppy anchor chain to something a precision machine made with a few little twists and taps of a hammer?!

Love this traditional way of this amazing gold craftmanship starting from real mint proper bars. Great quality and very interesting to see the whole process. How much for the bracelet if I wanted to buy one like that?
Lol 8,000? Bro the gold is worth like 3650 as of this post. Im sorry but that craftsmanship is not worth more than the gold. I wouldnt pay more than $5,000.
the clasp is similar to ones used in thailand a similar bracelet of that weight would be around $4,600 depending on gold price at time of buying though thai gold as a rule is 23ct not 24 so possibly nearer to 5k price
Those Perth Mint bars have had problems w/ counterfeits from China that look almost exactly like the real ones. It's hard to tell one from the other, the packaging is flawless because it's not that complicated to dupe for starters. The thickness of the bar absent any assay tests can tell the diff. Real bars are thicker than the fake ones because the fakes are made of harder and less dense metal(s) than gold.
Yeah, you'll get a problem with them if you buy them off ebay. if you buy them from the perth mint you wont ever have a problem. Thats like saying gucci had a problem with fake clothing or bags and complaining about it because you bought it off ebay or facebook. No shit china sells fake bars, get it from the source.
