nejad Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 It was a productive day at my shop; I made first set of 7 skull buckles. Six are 26mm and made one is 24mm. All buckles are made in 925 sterling and at the moment I just used spring bar but they will be welded for saw=in buckle. Skulls are set with 1.75mm cognac diamonds and 24mm is set with 2mm white diamonds. Total weight of a buckle is around 30 grams. All of them are totally unique and they are made by carved by hand in wax and all of them have different finish. Its super hard to see that on the pictures but there are 2 layers of oxidization and 2 different textures on every buckle; giving a lot of depth and 3D effect to it. I have 4 buckles more to go and I will try to use completely different finish and some crazy green diamonds that I have. I’ll upload it when am finished. Sorry for bad photo’s but its just the snap. One buckle with white gold skull and white diamonds is mounted on Donirex black crock and it looks sick (that is going on my 112) and my partner took one buckle for his 217 and he set his stones in a way that skull is “looking” on a side to words him (unfortunately he left the shop early so I didn’t shoot it). So what do you think? I would love some input from you guys… Thanks for looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KB Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 Reads very much like a sales post in the GD. If you want to sell them you have to upgrade your account and sell in the trading area. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nejad Posted March 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 Not planning real manufacture yet. At this point I would like to see where to go designee vise, before I make real step forward. Also it would be nice to see what other members think. That's all. Noting is for sale and so far: two are for me, one for my partner, one for Eric, and one for Sead and for couple more friends…. Other interesting thing is that I just realized that I am not a platinum member and i should be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subbiesrock Posted March 24, 2011 Report Share Posted March 24, 2011 Can you make sterling silver buckles without the skulls and oxidation? Same shape, just without the finishing steps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nejad Posted March 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Sixx don't worry this is just a start. i have a 112 and i made this 24mm just for that; looks sweet, but this strap is making it go over the top. i really love Donerix exotic straps and this one i didn't use so far i was saving it for a this buckle. silver is grate and i really love the contrast when silver bucke is placed with SS, PVD or Ti watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
