    about:
    my name is Jordan Mantzke and I am a goldsmith. I'm starting a vlog to help enrich my life and maybe a few of yours. One of the most common questions I get is what do I do with all of the gold scraps and shavings. In this video I finally answer that question.

    I like the old European cut. It looks like it has bigger sparkles.

    The brilliant cut is fast, flashy and dazzling but the old European cut is slowly seductively winking at the viewer. Looking amazing under the gentle glow of candlelight, the old European cut is kind of....sexy?

      The European cut has depth when viewed, and lovely large flashes of light. The brilliant cut shows lots of tiny little scintillating pinpoints of light. I find it less attractive, and in a way cheaper looking.

    I literally just got engaged and my ring is an old European cut 😍 it has been in his family for almost 100 years and I’ve been trying to learn more about it ❤️ it is a beautiful ring with incredible history I love this! (Also a super coincidence that you posted this right after I got engaged and I’m researching the ring because I watch you all the time)

      Old European cuts are longer (more egg shaped)instead of wider like the brilliant, the best thing to know is that the vintage ones are hand cut not like the laser cut ones today everyone identical, your stone is individual because it was hand cut the only one like it in the world, just as mine is the only one. Keep her clean and you will get compliments for years to come. I got mine for my 30th Anniversary, now on my 35th. I wish you many more years than that, congratulations!

      It's never too late!! I just turned 28 and it's been my dream to make jewelry...never done anything as far as real jewelry...done some beadwork and simple stuff like that...but my dream is to have a workshop to make real stuff....it takes money to make money...being a single mom I'm still trying to make money to start...but I know it will happen. Good luck!!! ❤️❤️✌️🤞🤞 Edit: my grandfather fixes watches, clocks, and jewelry for a living, built his own store with his dad and after his dad passed has been running it solo on his own. I grew up watching him and helping him with small things...but it's something I have always wanted to do (as far as the jewelry goes) and I know I will get there eventually. I believe you can do it girl ..like I said ..it's never too late!!!

    I always prefered old european or old mine cut stones (beautiful craftsmanship made by man, instead of machine) I feel like it lends it a softer feel, I think brilliant is too "harsh" and too robotic instead of romantic.

I love them both they are beautiful. I would highly recommend moissanite it’s alot cheaper then diamonds and just as beautiful. Further it’s almost as hard as diamonds also. So u can wear all the time. Treat ur self if u can ur worth it. Best wishes too u.

    When my husband proposed to me, he didn't have ring. We were a bit young and really couldn't afford much. We got my finger sized with the intention if buying a ring before the wedding, and it turns out my ring size was very small. (4.5) We lived in Guam at the time and went to literally every Jeweler on the island to commission a ring my size, no one could or was willing to do it because something about the integrity of the band to the diamond ratio would be compromised. Our friend who was a machinist at the time, ended up making us our first set of wedding rings from scrap metal of the ship we were all stationed on together. It was a wonderful engagement gift, and that set along side the wooden wedding set my husband made by hand for our wood anniversary are my favorite.
