About Extreme Jewelry Makeover:
In this MGTV series (Yes, I'm spoofing HGTV), I recycle old jewelry and turn it into something new. Often jewelry just rots away in a dresser drawer or jewelry box. People outgrow the design. This series will cover the adventures and design exploration of making new creative jewelry pieces with existing materials.
Episode 1: "The Diamond Cluster"
In this episode, I use existing diamonds from 4 different pieces of jewelry and combine them into one diamond cluster engagement ring. Some of the original yellow gold is also melted down in the new casting. Fresh alloy is added to ensure a clean cast. Any leftover materials are returned to the client or traded in for recycle credit. - Хобби
Did you earn your basket of fries? I.O.U.
Yes
I'm glad to see you wore a respirator :)
Eggplant chips?
I'm waiting on them ;)
😞🤐
also how damn awesome is it that the couple gets to keep this video and see how their ring was made. when they pass this ring down to their kids they'll be able to show them this video. its a keepsake with so much sentimental value. being able to have their first reaction forever is absolutely amazing... like they actually got to see the gold from both sides of their families becoming one with their own eyes... whats more symbolic, romantic and meaningful than that?! nothing lol the symbolism of being able to witness a marriage of the metals is just phenomenal... its perfect.
Those kids will sell it for crack
And then the kids can decide that this ring looks "too old fashioned" and have it made into something else 😂
Ikr?? That’s what I was thinking. Each time the ring is passed down, it comes with this video 💜💜
@@phantomkate6that’s why you give it to the kids with common sense lol
I would never have thought about recycling jewellery like this but, yeah, totally the most sustainable way to get a new piece of jewellery!
Its really great! Last year i was able to do something similar, i had a few broken pieces and worked with a goldsmith to design a ring. Super nice to see old pieces reused and come back to life
@@goharmartirosyan15 so cool! This is giving me ideas on old jewelry I have that is outdated
One of best friends has been having jewelry made like this for decades. I love Edwardian ring settings, that is a line I would not cross, ha ha ha.
I’m not usually a cluster ring fan but that ring and the meaning behind it was SO BEAUTIFUL you did an amazing job
I’m the same way but this cluster ring was different than any I’ve ever seen before! Very modern and beautiful!!
Same. Not usually a huge fan of cluster rings but this is a fresh, modern take and combines stones from two families beautifully.
The asymmetry made it truly wonderful.
You should change your channel name to “Wholesome Goldsmith”
lol but seriously I loved this!
Love that we got to see the reaction of the couple, what an wonderful memory you have created for them.
who would have known that I would cry someday over such wholesome goldsmithery 😭💕
Ha ha ha , I speak gibberish too!
I would love to see a behind the design where you share how you come up with ring designs!
Yes, good idea)
This is so much more chic looking than the typical “all in one circular clump” style of some cluster rings.
The non-radially symmetric design is really interesting and beautiful.
It bothers me. But, not my ring
That goofy smile after the like and subscribe joke 😂😂
the viewers really said
"everybody liked that"
Lol I checked the like to dislike ratio after reading this.... 😲 wow. That is impressive 👏
I love the idea of melting down jewelry we inherited and making something new. I’d like to do this for my son’s.
I LOVE UR CONTENT IM HERE TO STAY!
brb sobbing into my basket of fries, this was beautiful!
It’s gorgeous. Awesome job! My fave part was the fishing mostly because it’s the only part I understood 😅
I love your self-deprecating sense of humour! 😂♥️
I love the idea of merging two families together with jewelry, precious. Thanks for sharing your skills!
This ring is a masterpiece!!! What a tremendous transformation!!
Love your channel! I’d gladly watch 15-20 minutes of content each time - I appreciate seeing the step-by-step detail of your work.
** chefs kiss ** this channel is perfection. Well done, sir. Well done.
The ring was no doubt STUNNING!!!
I bet your job is very stressful but it does pay off when you see the glow on your customers' face.
It's beautiful! I've never thought such a ring would be my style but just seeing all the meaning behind it and the love you put into making it, it turned out to be so gorgeous and makes me think I might consider a ring like this one day!
I loved watching you cast this ring. It took me back to high school when I had a jewelry class and that's how we were taught to make rings. What a beautiful ring you created.
I love the ring! You’re brilliant!
I have a ring made of the engagement rings of the women in my family. The original settings were typical, but the bands were large & almost warm through. We took everything to a small jeweler & asked him to put them together. He did a wonderful job. It’s a beautiful ring & I wear it often. Wish I could share a pic with you.
I have conflicted feelings! On the other hand that many diamonds seem like such an overkill - but they are all from heirloom pieces and recycled! In the end i really love it!
I cannot love this enough 🥺🥺 I have an immense interest in gemology and metallurgy for over 13 years now and adore your videos 🥰💎💎💎💎
You are so talented. I said on another one of your videos, how much I love jewelry & that my daughter is a manager for a big store so I myself have had her recycle a few pieces. My husband bought me a 1 carat Eternity Circle necklace for Christmas & when my Mom passed away, I took one of her engagement rings & had them cut the diamond setting & it was a very old ring so it was enclosed & they added the bell to hang so it is a beautiful center diamond inside my circle so I have a touch of my parents always with me for Eternity. ❤🙏 Watching you kinda reminded me of my late Grandfather. He was a very talented blacksmith & I can still smell that distinct smell of placing hot iron in the big water baths. Making a beautiful piece that has a history and meaning to it, is what makes jewelry so special & precious to each individual. ❤
This ring was gorgeous and the music WAS PERFECT.
I've literally never seen a cluster ring I liked. This is gorgeous!! And I ADORE the sentiment behind it. So precious.
Love your style and love your vibe!!
Great use of a client's stones! It is always a difficult job to take a bunch of odd ball stones and make them into a modern piece of jewelry. I love how this ring came out!
Love seeing the customers reaction, hope to see an episode two for sure👍
I love the idea of recycling jewelry!! Definitely carries some more meaning and is a more sustainable way
How cool is THAT! Never imagined a 3D printer for jewelry casting, but that’s perfect! I learned a bit of lost wax casting and carving skills decades ago, and never imagined how technology could make this process so much more detailed. Awesome!
Loved the idea! It may be obvious for someone working in this field, but for me it gave a whole other meaning to the jewelry.
New goldsmith video?? Yessss
You are the best I love your videos. Every time I'm bored of doing stuff I hop on my iPad and watch you thank you for making these videos.😊😊😊😊❤
I so love seeing the mix of modern and old tech. The industry progresses but there are just some steps that are so “antiquated” and so tactile. I just love it!
You owe me that basket of fries since the Ariana Grande video!!! I'm here to stay, love this new ring and how both families were represented in it!
Man this channel is so cool. You only have a few true youtube videos but I've already got a really clear view of your style, it's so calming without being slow or boring. I get to look at pretty rings and listen to you talk about something your passionate about all the while the atmosphere stays chill and entertaining. I hope the youtube gods are kind to you and your videos, you deserve it :)
I love that ring! It is so unique yet classic and classy at the same time. Lucky bride 🙂.
Thanks for showing us how you create new pieces from old. So informative!
I would definitely say YES a million times. The craftmanship is 👌🏼
So Jordan, you realize now that you have to go on tour, delivering fries across your entire viewing area, RIGHT?!?!?!?!?!? Feel free to stop in Virginia first! 😉
Jordan. This is awesome. Look at you. Just, look at you. From the good ol' days of polishing rings on the other side of the window at the Kitsap mall, to a RUclips sensation. Congrats! You did it, you schmee!
Hahahahaha you’re one of the only people that saw me at the true beginning. Good times 😁😁😁
Amazing! Reusing old jewelry is so meaningful.
OMG that pearl ring with the 1mm band on your website is perfection.
While I'm not a cluster ring fan, this one was really pretty... I think the story made it very sentimental for those involved and it'll be treasured for many years to come. Great work!!
You have completely changed my mind about melting down and recycling old jewellery. It is fabulous!!! That particular ring is just stunning.
I loved the HGTV style ring makeover! You got the perfect music for the reveal haha😂
This was by far the coolest thing I have seen on RUclips in quite some time. Awesome job!
Such a beautiful ring! I’m so glad youtube recommended your channel to me! I am loving your content even though last year I got engaged and married so already have my rings. It is really fascinating the whole process and what goes into making rings.
As a fellow jeweller I understand that feeling where you hold your breath and wait for the reaction.... well done on the ring mate!
Beautiful! Cannot wait for more in this series. My husband and I used the stones and gold from three family rings for my engagement ring and designed it with our jeweler. It is so deeply meaningful to wear something from my family members who are no longer with us and remember them every time I see my ring on my hand. ❤️
Hi Jordan! Sooo glad I found your channel! I spent 40+ years designing and selling high end jewelry, old school drafted cartoons hand colored with gouache. I never did bench work, but loved working with the craftsmen, cutters, mold makers, etc. Each craft is an art unto itself. What I love beyond anything is making something unique that thrills the wearer and the person who gives it to them. Beautiful work!
Love.
Cool trick I discovered! If you take the rubber investment-mixing bowl; They usually fit overtop of the magnetic tumbler and really cuts down on the noise. Gotta save your hearing if you’re working around loud noises often. Great work.
What an absolute beautiful ring! And I love the sentiment behind it
Anxiety and making jewellery doesn't mix! You're brilliant 😀 and people should be so grateful to be able to afford even the smallest piece of your work! I went once to a hotel, where there was no menu to choose your meal from as they assumed everyone has to be grateful to be there and eat what's served! It was a long time ago and people never complained!
Similarly, people should accept that everything you make for them is in the best possible taste and it's made to last.
So, knowing how good you're, relax and be sure that everyone will be thrilled with the result.
Because you really are that good! 🤗♥️
Oh my gosh. What a beautiful and loving testimony to you and your wife. God bless y'all with many more memories and years to come.
I’ve had enough incomplete castings that I feel stress even when watching the melted metal go into the mold on video. The final ring looks awesome! ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful. The ring, and the sentiment behind it ❤️
Omg that is such a beautiful ring. And what a heartwarming end 🥰
That was sooo beautiful 😍 And seeing their reaction to the ring was everything 🥰😍
Yeah! I got my notification!
I very much enjoy your video’s!
I came for the knowledge, I stayed for your awesome personality ... and that VOICE (if I gave you the title, would you read/record a couple of chapters each day?) ‼️
If I could, I would quit my j no ob, attend a 3-4 yr course, then do volunteer work as your flunky.....ALL for the love of it (aka “Creativity On Steroids”).
Again, thank you! Keep it up😃
Everything about this video was so wholesome. And the ring was beautiful!
Thanks for including their reaction! It’s gorgeous!
The ariana video may have been viral, but YOU, your craft, your personality, your content is what created an audience and a community. Loved every video you've made. You're bringing a little bit of sparkle (pun intended) to peoples lives when it is needed most.
Such a cool video! Love seeing all that goes into making such beautiful jewelry!!
What a beautiful job you have :) loved to see your process! And thanks for being so open about the anxiety that comes with it 💛
This made my heart smile. Your content is just incredibly relaxing and informative. Thanks for creating beautiful things
Beautiful! I love this, very sustainable and a unique modern piece that will actually get worn.
Amazing. Great job. Love the music in this video also. Thank you for sharing.
You curated something wonderful from those old pieces that easily could have ended up sold for scrap. I watched the whole process and am still amazed. I am impressed. Hope you feel proud of what you achieved.
Absolutely gorgeous ring and I loved seeing the process!!!
That's very pretty! Eye-catching in a good way. You want to keep looking at that ring, because of the unusual, but still very harmonious design, not just because it's a big, expensive rock. And what a beautiful story behind it. Makes me want to do something like that with my grandmother's jewelry, which has some nice stones, but is otherwise too 'old lady' for me.
Absolutely stunning!!!!! Excited for what you do next!
I just LOVE your content! Watching the whole process, especially the polishing and final touches, is kind of like an ASMR experience. Thank you for shining a light on the beauty of true craftmanship and in this case recycling! Much appreciated!
This is so cool! I designed my wedding band with diamonds from my maternal grandmother's earrings, my promise ring, my Mom's wedding set and my gold class ring plus the gold combining all components. I love it still. An homage to Art Deco, my favorite. I'm also a sucker for migraine work. 💜💕💚
always love to see new videos from you, the ring turned out so beautifully!
I had never thought to have old jewellery re-cast and re-made into new jewellery. What a wonderful way to be sustainable and incorporate sentimental pieces!! Love the design too. 😍
Wow, beautiful ring, so interesting watching your work👌🏼
I LOVE that ring! I've been wondering how to re-make my gold ring set. I love the asymmetry, it's so unique. How lovely that all the diamonds and gold came from each side of the family. So touching. I really wish I could find a jeweler like you in my neck of the woods!
That's seriously one of the most beautiful rings I've ever seen! I love designs that look unique, and this one has such a lovely story too! 💖🖤
Love seeing your enthusiasm and genuine smile! Keep doing what your doing and I know personally I would love to see more rings being made!
I get so excited when I see your videos on my feed. I absolutely love your content. Everything from how you describe what you’re doing to the music you choose.
I love jewelry! I love rings especially. That one was just lovely! Great job!
Awesome that’s good! Funny, entertaining, and of course educational and fun to watch as you build these diamond and gold pieces that are so beautiful
Wow. People need to see just what is involved when they get jewelry made, or remade into a new piece. Absolutely fantastic!
I find these videos so relaxing! Love to watch you work.
Wow that’s so different and unique and BEAUTIFUL 🤩 LOVE your channel!
Beautiful ring! Love the story behind it too - joining heirlooms from both sides of the family 😍
You made a beautiful ring. Love to see how it is done.
I'm not usually a fan of cluster rings, especially if they are made up of round stones, but I actually love how this turned out! What an awesomely unique piece of jewelry with an even more awesome creation story! Love!!💖💍
A beautiful ring! Loved the whole thing, video, love story and outcome.
It’s beautiful. I love the use of family jewelry.
Beautiful. Perfect. Amazing. Thank you foe sharing! Love, love, love!!!!
Stunner, I’m falling more and more in love with asymmetrical rings 💞
That's really cool, new jewelry add more uses the one
This was so cool! So thankful that you're sharing your work with the world.
Wow...beautiful! Love your videos. I adore diamonds and love sitting down with a cuppa watching you create incredible designs! Thank you!
That is a beautiful ring! I love unique rings and especially yellow gold. Great idea they had of using jewelry from both sides of the family. Great job!
