Rubber O Rings(1)

Various Black Hills Gold jewelry companies have somewhat different processes for creating a finished piece of jewelry out of raw gold. But the process always begins with 24K gold grain, and

Mixing the gold with other metals creates an alloy, a stronger composition that will have better wear and tear and maintain its beautiful characteristics. This is how 14 karat, 12 karat and 10 karat gold are made.Ever wonder how the pink and green Black Hills Gold leaves are made? Well, copper is mixed with gold to create the pink colored leaves while mixing Sterling silver with gold results in the delicate green color. The gold grain is alloyed and then cast in bars, which are then rolled into sheets of different thicknesses as required by the various models. Leaves and other jewelry components, as well as some thinner ring shanks are then stamped out of these sheets.Another process used to make rings is Casting. The new design begins as a sketch and then a three dimensional model is intricately carved out of wax. From this design, a metal model is produced which is then used to make a rubber mold by surrounding the model with rubber and heating it until all the rubber melts. When the rubber mold cools, hot wax is then injected into the rubber mold creating a detailed wax form of the model. The wax model is then placed in a flask, which is filled with a substance similar to plaster of Paris. The filled flask is then heated to over 1000 °F, melting the wax and creating a casting. This is what is called the "lost wax casting method". Molten gold is then poured into the casting and when cooled, the main piece of jewelry is formed.Next, these pieces go to the Grinding Department where they are ground and trimmed by hand until smooth.In the Soldering Department, leaves and grapes are permanently attached and then the pieces are dipped in a solution of 24 karat gold, which is a process called electroplating.The pieces are then worked on further by hand: Wriggling is the process which removes the electroplating and creates the frosty finish on the pink and green leaves. Once the wriggling process is done its time for the Engraving Department where Landstroms skilled craftsmen will hand engrave veins into each leaf.In the Polishing Department, jewelry pieces undergo several steps to bring out the full, rich luster of each piece.Jewelry pieces requiring stones go to the Custom Rubber Stoppers Suppliers Stone Setting Department where genuine or synthetic stones are set.Then its off to Final Inspection, where the jewelry is checked, tagged and packaged in the distinctive Landstroms box.From the first step to the final inspection, each piece of Landstroms Original Black Hills Gold reflects the skills of up to 50 different highly trained artisans.
