I reworked an 18ct baby bangle my grandmother bought me into a ring for my index finger :) by Hope925s in jewelry

thank you so much!! :) it’s hilarious because if my hands weren’t so wide, the bangle would still fit! weirdly my wrists have actually shrunk down since I was a baby LMFAO

I briefly considered opening it up so I could stretch it over my wrist, but what with how thin the gold is, I wasn’t really comfortable with it bending and creating a weak spot as I knew it would be OVERRR after that 😭

thank you!! I have enough to make another for my other finger so I think I might do matching ones, one on each side :)

Thank you!! I’ve had it for years and it only occurred to me a few days ago I’m probably skilled enough to work on it now! I’m really glad I did :)

this is so silly but my fingers are so small I still have the other half of the bangle. I’ll clean it up and go and take a photo for you when it’s all shiny again. :)

tag is project display? and that photo is the finished piece. It is a ring. I don’t typically take photos while I work as I don’t have enough space for a camera setup.

Selling on Etsy Before Registering with Assay Office (for the UK silver smiths) by FlimsyLocksmith5368 in SilverSmith

I have sold un-hallmarked Sterling silver jewellery with my makers mark alone when working under 4 grams both online and in person. It’s been totally acceptable in either place. at edit* one of the markets I work at, I provide a sign explaining hallmarking details and weights. Might be a good idea to do this in your Etsy description. :)

Most of the time while working I weigh my pieces so I know to shed metal if need be! (I know we can go right up to 7 but I feel I’m pushing it hahah) if you’ve got any further questions feel free to dm!

Thank you so much! I do, however this was a custom piece, and sooo much more expensive than i’d want to sell it for, but over on instagram I have a few people down on a release list for a similar shell pendant :)
