Because we custom-manufacture jewelry, you choose the size, the metal (white or yellow gold, platinum, palladium, etc) and also whether you want to add accent stones like white sapphires or diamonds or rubies or any other gemstone.

Any chance you could make cuff links?

[tiptopgemdotcom]

Yes, no problem!  PM sent!

[tiptopgemdotcom]

Bitcoin earrings would be no problem either.

Jewelry design is so simple. I could do that with a copy of 1992 Modeler 3D
I haven't done 3D work in over a decade when I was using Lightwave 3D. I would like to get into this type of thing again designing artwork and toys. Now that STL is becoming affordable, this would be fun as a hobby.

The software is Rhino-based- Matrix 3D

It is the gold standard in custom jewelry these days.  I am not sure that it is easy- I know someone who has been drawing on CAD for over ten years and he found the program to be very difficult to use- it took him about a year to get proficient with it.  My current artist is in the Ukraine- he started with Matrix and he is superb.  Jewelry seems to be difficult for most people who have done other kinds of CAD and I am not sure why.  

Here are some cufflink drawings and renderings:











These are available in 10K gold, 14K gold, 18K gold, palladium, or platinum.

And yes- we ship almost anywhere.  My wife and I live in Thailand and Ohio- but we are mostly in Thailand these days.

If you want platinum we pour both 900 and 950 platinum- just ask for details and an estimate!

What metals do you work with, and can you make complicated 3D shapes?
