There's nothing like the amazing color of 99.99% pure gold. The color reminds me of King Tutankhamun's mask. If I'm not mistaken his mask was 23.5k, which is close enough to 24K. And don't forget 24 karat gold cannot tarnish.
Love the shiney stuff!!! I've been making some new chains if you get bored feel free to take a peak at my channel. These comments are really great, thank you!
Yeah especially in person. On camera it looks like fake toy gold but you can DEFINITELY tell the difference in person. It almost looks as if it’s glowing. I have Mene pendant that gets lots of compliments. I LOVE high purity gold!😍
I like the clasp change you did. I wonder how to do that. 😂just as im commenting you say there’s a video about the clasps❤. I’ll watch that next. Thank you for posting! This is next on my my wishlist in 16”
Yes! Always wear but for sure be cautious about where you let her be seen. There is a saying out there 'how much your watch cost, you bout to get that watch lost..." Lol. People are dirty sometimes. Keep cautious.
Does your chain hangs straight? When you shine a light, does the reflection of the lights move continuously or like jumping every 4 inches? Mine was like it has a twisted link evry 4 inches.
Some of the links do kinda not sit perfect. I can only notice when I'm letting it hang and look down it. Wearing I've never noticed. I'm sure being 24k there is more variance to each link vs a lower k gold. Not sure. Lol.
@@SmartBettsPM thank you for the feedback. From your experience is 24k as soft as a lot of jeweler’s say it is? One jeweler was telling me he tossed a 24K necklace on the floor and it bent, I was thinking to myself what a bunch of bull shi*. 😂
@@user-gu7dn9gr8f I've dropped rings and had flat dents in them. Small but still. The thinner you go the more likely things will get funny. How often are you throwing a gold chain to the floor?
@@SmartBettsPM this is what a jeweler was telling me he dropped a 24KT necklace on the floor and it bent. 🤔 I think it’s bs cause they don’t sell 24k only 10 through 18k.
I bought the crucifix pendant and i love it. Made some fake money on bitcoin and cashed out to buy gold lol. Loving the pendant. Which chain do you think best fits it?
Welll…I love my earrings. But the backs suck. They are so hard to get off. I cut my nails short and with no nails…they are hell to get off. But I do love the way the gold shines in a different way in the sun.
Thanks for the info. I haven't bought any of the earrings from mene. I might pick up some to show the issue you talked about. My curiosity is running. Thanks!
How are the silicone backings difficult? I actually am concerned they aren't tight enough and the posts are a bit short. Or maybe I fat earlobes🤔lol...
I have no tools for smelting, should I trust the 24K gold wires available in eBay? What gauge or wire diameter you came up with the spiral rings? How long of a wire should I need to make 3 rings like the ones you made? Sorry asking too much, but this is just a payback because you are one of the reasons I bit the bullet and ordered a narrow and regular versions both 26". No regrets except for that hoop and rod thingy for the big version. Scared to loose it. Thanks for the video. I subscribed in fairness.
I haven't measure and can only guess. maybe 2mm or 3mm. Max. Yea that rod and hoop system made me very nervous. Also. I'm sure you can buy wire from ebay sellers. Make sure to really be picky who from. Twist around small screwdriver or something like. That would yield you perfect spirals.
I'll give mene the benefit and say they didn't call it a Cuban. And I agree with you! They just call it flat link. Which imo is just a rolled chain to be flat. I'm really bad, but check my channel and other videos. I've been trying to perfect making chains. Just completed a 120gram 26" chain. Again, I'm not great yet. 😂
Honestly no, or at least very rarely. It would more often when I would take her off for shower or whatever. When it's in a big pile. But the kinks shake off. And honestly s little wear of the chain made everything smoother and fit together nicer.
I've bought many items from mene. I've sold many of them since. But everything was beautiful 24k. There are imperfections, but almost makes it even more original that way.
26" and around 85 grams. (my memory is fading) Check my channel if you get bored I got some other chain videos. I've been trying to perfect making them myself so I can save the ~30% premium.
Gold today is about 1975usd/ozt. Online is easiest to get unless you know some refiners then you can get the best pricing. Im sorry I don't understand the transfer letter request.
Your chain and ring are beautiful. I need some 24k jump rings because I don't trust the closures that came with my chain. Do you sell those jump rings and could I have two made? I don't see them selling anywhere in 24k solid gold. You are very talented!!
Thank you for the compliments! What size and style chain are you working with? I don't see any reason I can't help you out. smartbettspm@gmail.com we can get some details!
It was cheaper when I bought it with gold spot being hundreds less. But right now it's about 8k on Mene website. About 5500-6k gold value plus there premium. Check my other videos I've been practicing making my own chains. Save the premium!!
