The wax was so fragile, it broke 3 times when I was carving it! The casting came out good, though :) #jewelry #benchjeweler #handmade #finejewelry #goldsmith

Big diamonds are in fashion. The industry is changing a lot these days. It’s getting cheaper to manufacture synthetic diamonds, and prices are plummeting. We’re seeing 4, 5 and 6 karat diamond rings around here. #benchjeweler #diamonds #diamondjewelry #finejewelry #goldsmith

Before I was a jeweler, I was a painter. I was a starving artist for over a decade. #starvingartist #jewelryartist #careerartist #benchjeweler

When I was a college kid, I leaned into the role of weird art student. I had fun and learned an appreciation for modern and contemporary art. And I swallowed the myth of the lone starving artist. Money talk was taboo. #fineart #handmade #benchjeweler #jeweler

When I was younger, I loved drawing and I wanted to be an animator. Then everything went digital, and I moved on. I knew I needed to be working with my hands. #benchjeweler

I DID NOT MAKE THIS. My boss just finished this pendant up today. I just want to share with you what a masterpiece looks like. What outfit would you pair this with? #benchjeweler #masterjeweler #mastercraftsman #handmade

At some point I want to be able to make a living off of my own jewelry designs. at present, though, it’s hard to find the energy for my projects after 8 hours of cleaning up castings. I do what I can. #benchjeweler #jewelrydesign #handmade

This sparkly piece of chrysocola is going to be a challenge to make into jewelry. I’ll need to carve a custom wax to fit the shape. #benchjeweler #jewelrydesign #handmade

One drawback to working full time as a jeweler is that my digital devices no longer recognize my fingerprints. #benchjeweler #jeweler #tradejobs #handmade

I’m sprucing up this gold bracelet for a customer. They requested us to change out the diamond eyes for emeralds. #benchjeweler #goldsmith #jewelryart

I’ve been making a little progress in the home studio tonight. It’s hard to find the energy sometimes, but it’s worth it to see the results. #silversmith #benchjeweler
