19.01.2022 Versace ring in for a resize. Unknown metal type as it is non-precious. Any welding would have burnt the finish. Sleeving to reduce it by four sizes and lock in place without damaging the original. Also removable in the future if required. #johnfoxgoldsmith #versace #bathurstnsw #bathurst #ruralnsw #centralwestnsw #custommade
19.01.2022 Similar Pave Ring as the last one, but with a softer feminine finish. #johnfoxgoldsmith #jewellery #jeweller #ruralnsw #bathurst #bespoke #premium #unique #handmade #heirloom #ring #makeastatement #gold #rosegold #platinum #naturaldiamonds #losttrades #centralwestnsw #engagement #wedding #madetoorder

Setting customer's Australian Sandstone Opal that he found and cut.

09.01.2022 Here is a stunning, locally found, Black Springs Sapphire cut by Adrian @unicorn_gems I had the pleasure of turning it into a beautiful ring according to the finder's specifications. #johnfoxgoldsmith #jeweller #repairs #remodelling #bespoke #unique #bathurst #ruralnsw #jewellery #fossicking #gemcutting #lapidary #handmade #recycling #heirloom #ring #makeastatement #sapphirering #blacksprings
06.01.2022 A Winter Warmer. Raw Gold from Hill End NSW refined and karated to 18k Green Gold. #johnfoxgoldsmith #hillendnsw #bathurstnsw #bathurst #ruralnsw #goldsmithing #bespokejewelry #handmade #jeweler #jeweller #greengold #nugget #makeastatement #heirloom #handmade #fossicking #recycling #handmadejewellery #gold
06.01.2022 Another day at the office!!! #johnfoxgoldsmith #bathurst #ruralnsw #bespoke
04.01.2022 Easy for me to forget how fortunate I am to create from such a variety of raw materials. In this case, classic Australian Electrum from the Bathurst NSW Region. Tested in Sydney at 60% Gold, 20% Silver, 20% Iron. I refined it to remove the Iron and leave the rest as pure as possible. These photos just don't do the rich yellow/green of this metal justice. A soft metal close to 22k in wearability. Had to beef up the jump rings a bit to compensate. Holding 3 Parti Sapphires, fos...sicked in Ruby Vale and Sapphire QLD by the proud owners, who also found the local Electrum. The truth is out there, so apparently are the gold and gemstones!!! Eyes open, No fear! #johnfoxgoldsmith #jewelery #jeweller #jewellery #bespokejewelry #bespoke #unique #bathurst #centralwestnsw #ruralnsw #greengold #Electrum #nugget #rubyvale #rubyvaleqld #fossicking #gemcutting #lapidary #handmade #handmadejewellery #recycling #heirloom #pendant #makeastatement #gold #bathurstnsw See more

SERIOUS respect for anyone who drives a Big Rig! #johnfoxgoldsmith #ruralnsw #bathurstnsw #bathurst #centralwestnsw #centralwestdrivertraining #drivertraining #eatonfuller #roadranger
04.01.2022 The 18k Green Gold Ring from Hill End Alluvial Gold. Local contaminate in the alluvial gold has to be removed first, in this case, local iron. I must say, playing with liquid gold is so much fun, so long as you remember it is at 1000deg C. Then you get to change it's colour like paint on an artists palatte. #northeys #johnfoxgoldsmith #ring #unique #hillendnsw #ruralnsw #centralwestnsw #bathurst #bathurstnsw #goldsmithing #bespokejewelry #handmade #jeweller #jewelery #greengold #nugget #makeastatement #fossicking #handmadejewellery #gold #recycling
