Turning the Gold and Gemstones I found into a beautiful Ring!!

When i first discovered gold underwater years ago I was immediately hooked and it has now become a major part of my life and shaped the way in which I live it. As a young impressionable young man I was influenced by my pop who spoke of gold in the Mersey river where he owned land. I soon got myself a metal detector and set out to find myself large gold nuggets. The problem was I had no idea how to prospect at that age and soon lost interest. Twenty years later my wife got me hooked again after a successful fossicking trip in NE Tasmania. I returned home and researched the web for gold deposits and gold mining history in Tasmania and with the extra information now available online I was able to find my first few pieces of alluvial gold. I've always wanted to make a ring from the gold I've collected and that time has finally come.

Awesome Levi.. Well done on getting that Gem and Gold put together to make a symbol with love 💕 to give to your sole mate..Your Wife.. Congratulations. Cheers Tony 🥂

Well done Levi you guys just made a beautiful family heirloom👏👏 I had an ounce of my gold made into a ring, pendant & earrings for my wife on our 25th anniversary. I think the fact that you found the gold & stones makes the jewellery even more special.

@vabh4013 Год назад

Beautiful. Today is our 46th wedding anniversary and your ring and the love behind it brought a tear to my eye. Thanks for sharing.

@tazzfishing Год назад

Hi it is ewan and trevor, ring turned out beautiful. You have inspired us to keep looking and showed us that even the smallest of stones can be made look beautiful when in the right hands. Also thanks for making my birthday wish and letting me get a picture with you.

@lyndilou6314 Год назад

Beautiful 💕 My Grandfather was a fossicker, facetor and a self-taught jeweller. In his 97 years on this earth he found and then created one of a kind pieces for his family. I proudly wear a peridot and zircon ring he made for my Nan. I know exactly where and when he found the stones as they often told the story of this particular fossicking trip, including the friends they made and the food they cooked (my grandparents were amazing cooks). Each of my children have a stone found and faceted by their Great-grandfather especially for them in celebration of their births. The memories are the thing that makes these stones precious and priceless ❤️ As is the stunning ring that has been created for Louise.

@Spudscave Год назад

Levi that was so well edited thanks for sharing a very special moment with us the ring 💍 was crafted by jewellers at the top of their profession well done girls you have made Levi and his wife so happy all the best Levi and family love from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The best I've seen- shows the entire process, withholding nothing of the details! I have collected gems, faceted hundreds of them, and even formed gold and silver to set them in finished products. I must watch again, just for the joy of it all. Great job on the video!

@nhsilversleuth6029 Год назад

Levi, I have to say this video is among the best, if not the most enjoyable I have ever watched! I think most of us prospectors dream of doing something like this with some of our hard earned treasure. It was a true pleasure to watch the process as your stone and gold were transformed into such a beautiful ring. Thanks so much!

@officialtassieboysprospecting Год назад

Thanks heaps really appreciate it

@colleenwellard7738 Год назад

Totally agree My sentiments exactly

@Caro_arch5801 Год назад

What a beautiful end result! The ring is absolutely gorgeous! ❤ This was a lovely video as well, beautifully edited & very enjoyable to watch. Thank you Levi 😊

@adambrown2626 Год назад

What an amazing result, an incredible collaboration of hard core fossicking and talented artisans, bloody brilliant.

@johnfoord9444 Год назад

I love that in one of your earlier videos you mentioned that gold prospecting has given you a focus to manage your mental health issues and also the death of your brother! As a person with lifelong mental health issues when you find your happy place, wherever that is, it is so important to grasp it with both hands and feed it. That place will help carry you through the dark. Kia Kaha brother Kia Kaha

As a long time subscriber, I have to say that was a bit of change to your usual content. That said, how fantastic to see the fruits of your labour being transformed by two talented artisans. To everybody involved (including Louise), I take my hat of to you. Thanks for sharing. From the UK

@tomheater6149 Год назад

You really brought out some passionate emotions with this video Levi. A man's true show of love for his wife, very honorable

@user-sf3us6ub4k Год назад

I only just now watched the video about getting THE ring! It brought tears to my eyes. I know what it is to have a passion about something and see such wonderful experiences, accomplishments and brings love and a warm glow in your whole body every single day. Bravo for you, Levi and your lucky your wife REALLY supports you and how your children are included. A husband and father who let's say has a passion for golf. It is not an all inclusive family activity. For the better part of 30 years we went camping together over weekends, sitting around campfires, sharing our days fun. IRREPLACEABLE! I am so happy for you and yours. And you and I, both, will always remember daily the loved one we lost. Love your videos. I hope UTube doesn't change and deny me the opportunity to follow you. God be with you. Janice

@colleenwellard7738 Год назад

What a beautiful and sentimental treasure to share with your beautiful wife. So cool to have turned your precious finds into something so beautiful. I so enjoyed this particular video. Thanks

@charlesthompson3816 Год назад

Man Levi, I have not missed one of your video from the start. What a ring to be able to tell a story with the family. This one is by far one of the favorites. Keep that passion alive. And thank you for sharing it.

@nicholashaigh8319 Год назад

The best thing I’ve watched in a very long time. Ever since you mentioned some time back that you were going to have some of the gold you found made into a ring, I have been looking forward to this. Even better to use a beautiful stone that you also found. The work of both ladies was amazing. What a personal gift and something that will be handed down through generations to come. Just brilliant. Thanks.

Amazing story from being to end Levi, it’s great to see your videos every time they come out. The history and passion you bring is awesome 👏 and now a family heirloom that I’m sure Shelley will cherish. Just amazing Levi, Shelley and your children 😊

@janicecooper875 Год назад

Ahh ha Levi, now my friend you are moving into my territory of Jewellery Making!! I feel quite pleased about that. Perhaps you could do a course in it and hopefully make some rings, pendants whatever you like from your gold. I see your wife prefers white gold. I, on the other hand just love the yellow of gold, because gold IS yellow colour. I love 18K, the yellow the better. Some things can be 22K and the gold colour is very rich, but sometimes it can be a little too soft for rings which need to be a bit more robust for wear and tear. It's so lovely that your whole family can enjoy this hobby. Get the boys into making. You might have budding little jewellers there. Are you planning to go for any more gold and gemstones. I can reliably tell you, this jewellery stuff gets into your veins - it did for me! THANKS A MILLION FOR THE VIDEO - IT WAS GREAT!! Thoroughly enjoyed it.

@officialtassieboysprospecting Год назад

I’d like to learn more and yes I should be getting the boys taught too 👍🏼👍🏼

@dawsondiggingholes2729 Год назад

That was such a good video. I loved how when you got the cut gems back from the gold coast, you were so excited you just opened them in the car! 😁

@paulharris3064 Год назад

Brilliant video , reminds of what I once had . I was in the same situation of what I had collected over 40 years of fossicking, stones , gold, this was taken from me when the safe I kept it in was stolen from a break in on our house. The most disappointing thing was that was 40 years of memories gone , so all you can do is get on with life and forget about what was once a thing I had . So well done Levi .

@JoeDogoutdoors Год назад

Wow what a great gift for your wife. Seems the whole family might have had a hand in its miraculous transformation. Great job and nice work Levi. ✌🏻✌🏻

@pattimessenger6214 Год назад

@cindydifatta9012 Год назад

Absolutely love this video! Those jewelry artists are so gifted. We take for granted just how much is involved in making a single piece of jewelry. You just pick a ring up, put it on your finger, and go home. Paying for it of course! But then complain about or shocked by the price tag. Now I understand why some simple looking items are so expensive and so should everyone else! Your wife's ring is so gorgeous, and so very special. 👍❤
