This is how stones are set, not how jewellery is made. The jewellery is already made and he's setting the stones

This only covers pavé stone setting, and indeed in great detail. However like the description says the jewelry piece itself isn’t hand made with old school techniques but printed and cast first, extremely common these days. Goldsmiths who make this kind of ring from start to finish including the setting are rare. People would rather pay less so those artisans and methods are becoming scarce as the printing and casting with stone setters finishing off with stones has exploded on an industrial level with a wide span of cheap and ugly to great quality work. Unfortunately alot of people these days can’t tell the difference and don’t even bring a loup when shopping for jewelry, so many spend on cheap craftmanship. This video is great and shows the work involved setting stones in this style. And Mendelsohn to boot! 😃

hey all.. thanks for the clarification, and I do love detail.. I understand this is just the stone setting process. I was just speaking loose by saying "how jewelry is made". Stone setting is what I really meant. But thanks yall

@@gnarbeljo8980 tbh if you do casting right you can make a just as good piece in half the time and it saves a lot of effort the ones who can make it without a cast usually don’t bother since it’s so much more effort for the same amount of money

Rascal77s thanks rascal !

Cesco Monti thanks for your appreciation !

Simone de Silvestro thank you for those kind words.

Aaron Walton thanks Aaron for your support ! 💪

Dylan Sewald thanks for your comment. I combine manual craftsmanship with complex cad to create unique jewelry pieces. If you ever want to get in touch feel free to reach out to me ;-)

I want to work on this field can you help me

Jump right in with pave and move to micro pave same technique just smaller. Try doing to in lay in thr sides of those bands you make.

Allan Fink thanks for those nice words ! Have a nice Sunday

Craig Avery good luck with your classes !

Thanks for your WOW comment ;-)

dtiydr thanks for your comment ! Very much appreciated:-)

TheGrandFanelli thank you !

You're welcome!

Morgan Olfursson thanks for your comment and questions. It indeed takes a lot of patience and also practice. Th diamonds go as small as 0.55mm in diameter (not in this ring though) and are all precise machine cut with 57 facets.

This is phenomenal . Thanks so much for taking the time to answer . You are a tremendous artist and craftsman and though people like you are behind the most brilliant (no pun intended) creations in terms of jewelry out there today and throughout history , nobody really knows your names . It is like painting or sculpting a masterpiece and not signing it , i find it very humble and humbling at the same time . And on a totally different note , I am a veterinarian and i don't think my hands are as steady as yours so congrats for that too, your hands and finger fine muscle control is very impressive .

Morgan Olfursson thanks for the kind words !! :-)

Donz Milky thanks for your nice comment. It’s indeed a perfectionist job and takes many hours to do right. But I love what I do! And also do watches by the way ;-)

@@heinikendude whats the smallest diamonds youve set? Largest? Ever make anything so perfect you had to keep it for yourself? Haha

@@heinikendude what would be a list of tools necessary to start making your own jewelry?

Donz Milky send me a email info@vandoorendiamonds.com ;-)

sunpresso 108 thanks for your comment

Yes, the face is a bit different. I sharpen it to what feels good .

许逍遥 thanks I guess ? Do you also have an English translation ? Regards

Jose Tostado yes, currently as a side career. It took me quite some time to train.

dj ilu hi and thanks for the comment. Stainless steel works the same way , only is a bit harder due to the characteristics of the metal

Ah thanks! is brass a good metal to train with?

dj ilu yes ! Definitely brass or 925 silver. Good luck ;-)

Ana Aldana muchas gracias

lehman thanks !

Amani merci pour votre commentaire

J Grizzle thanks for your question. This is a big beading tool which I dip in water to create a adhesion effect on the table of the tiny diamonds

A Hollow nail

Haha Ralph, you're completely correct!

Llama Sama thank you for your comment ;-)

Julio Goyzueta hi, we use simple Sony camera with magnifying lens

Thank you for answering me.

Thanks ! ;-)

Hmmmm .....

Send me a message on Instagram @icefreezejewelry I could come up with something for you 💯

James Palmer thanks for asking. It’s an electric powered drill which is controlled by a foot pedal

Thanks Taner Dalan !

YoungSubaru88 haha yes is from all the stress and manual labor;-)

Lori Spears about 3 days I guess ;-) without designing and casting and finishing the ring. So just the setting

I'm

Ayiensky Ayiensky thanks ;-)

Emil Diaco see my other comment ;-)

Hi David, I just use very very low rotations. only 300/minute

Akash Biswas thanks for your comment

Rio Grande hi, thanks ! Happy to do so in a later video

Great. We look forward to it!

Lucy Walker sorry guys, I keep forgetting to share it. Will try to do soon!

I'd love to see it too

Hi, this is a small carbide tip Bush drill. I love it because it gives better stability.

*commentator* hahaha ! Yes 186 diamonds and 18kt gold. You can send email to info@vandoorendiamonds.com for a quote ;-)

*commentator* 😂😂😂

Oh wait, you use pieces of the gold to keep them in place dont you?

Jurick Soekhai yes I bend over tiny tiny prongs. There is no glue even coming near the piece of jewelry

You see that very correctly. I normally drill with a round bur of 1.30 mm but after drilling 100 + holes the bur is not 1.30 but more like 1.26 - 1.28 due to the wearing of the metal. As the gold is relatively soft and the diamonds very hard I can gently push the stones in ;-)

@@heinikendude thank you for the explanation.. great work

Thanks you Elit!

Victor Petrovski of course we do ! ;-)

OumEdy JWL thanks !

u r not installer , in jewelry business we call "setter". Diamond setter :) .

@@nats3506 , yes, I mean that, :) r u same, setter diamond ?

Yes, I'm. I have 48 years of experience as Master Jeweler . If u r good with your skills I suggest , move to USA, you will make good money ,more than in Jakarta .

Btw,How many years of experience do you have ?

The Original Wilson I had to cut and drill it all. Started out with a solid surface.

So you did cut a seat in the prongs for the stones

The Original Wilson no seat. The prongs are so tiny one can bend them over easily without cutting any seat

vandoorenniels thank you so much for clearing that up

The Original Wilson you’re welcome !

Hi Mostefa, Yes the burr is the same width. I try to flush these diamonds together as tightly as possible. So perhaps 1.32 mm for 1.30 mm diamonds

@@heinikendude thanks so much for being a great resource of knowledge for us youtubers!

Thanks David for your nice comment!

Guldsmeden Carlberg hi, I already replied on your question on my other video. But it is not graver Mach. It is art graver from Jura.

Gracias para tu mensaje

Please translate ;-)

Seats are cut to the exact size. But over time a 1.3mm round burr 'rounds' off so it's more like 1.28 .

This is not a graver Max, it's a Jura ARtgraver

THE BRAVADO SHOW haha I wouldn’t really put it that way but thanks anyhow ! 😉

Hi Chip, I guess it might be an option. However this level and quality of diamond setting work goes up to 0.01 mm precision. So I always prefer to actually take the gold product and start measuring/making calculations from there on. As there is always shrinkage in 3D printing, in casting and in polishing etc. ;-)

Thanks Martin!

Hi Cory, Sorry for the delayed response. It's a nail with a hollow tip. Or you can also use an old beading tool

Most of the tools used are from Jura Tools, if you mention which you mean by indicating the minute marker I can be more specific.

Hi 'X', that is very nice to hear! Any advice,... well about what? Where to start? I would advice to find a good teacher or friend who can help you with the basics ;-)
