Hi everyone,
I was on the hunt for an outdoor ice maker and when I search it on google a bunch show up but I guess when looking at the details I don't think they are made for outdoor? i'll add an example below, but any reccs on an outdoor ice maker that isnt crazy expensive?
Hi everyone! I’m very new here and very late to the game that isn’t Amazon bracelet stacking. So I’m Looking for some advice on a custom everyday tennis bracelet I’m considering having made. I’ll try and provide a good amount of details below.
I specifically want a half bangle / half tennis bracelet design, with the diamonds on the tennis portion and a solid bangle-style section on the other half.
I’m leaning toward 925 sterling silver with lab-grown diamonds instead of going with solid gold. I plan on wearing it pretty much every day, so I’m wondering if sterling silver is actually a good choice structurally for this type of bracelet, especially with the stones/settings and the transition between the bangle and tennis portion.
A few things that matter to me:
— I definitely want lab-grown diamonds and would rather put more of the budget toward getting nice stones
— I actually like jewelry with some weight to it. I don’t care about minimizing the grams of metal to save money, I prefer a heavier, more substantial piece because it doesn’t feel cheap.(it’s not necessary the piece is heavy, I’m just saying because some say platinum is heavy)
—This would be an everyday bracelet, so durability is important.
I’m okay with normal maintenance/polishing, but I don’t want something that’s going to constantly bend, loosen stones, or become a headache.
—Lastly, At the same time, I don’t want to spend a crazy amount on a bracelet if sterling silver can accomplish what I’m looking for.
For anyone familiar with custom jewelry: Is 925 sterling silver perfectly fine for something like this, or would you strongly recommend going with 10k/14k gold or platinum for durability?
Also, for the jewelers/custom makers here, do these estimates (adding at the bottom)seem reasonable for a half-bangle/half-tennis bracelet using lab diamonds? I’m mainly trying to figure out whether the pricing I’m getting makes sense for the materials and design, and whether there are any specific specs I should ask about before having it made.
Would especially appreciate advice from anyone who has had a sterling silver + lab diamond tennis bracelet made and actually wears it daily.
Estimate i was given: these are approx and around 2cts?(idk if that’s right)
Lab diamonds:
Round shape diamonds in 14K will be approx $3400
Platinum will be approx $3900
Silver with lab diamonds: 650
Hi everyone!
I wanted to purchase a series 4 medium black classic double flap in caviar but was told they didn’t make a classic flap in caviar till series 5, is that the case?
If it is, that means series 4 is only available in lambskin?
Is there a guide for approx month/dates when series 4&5 were made?
