Did you get that from Rafaello?

No, a jeweler here in TX. I used to work with the guy that made my old custom stuff when I was in the music world but he retired on me a few years ago, but I still know a few people in the Jewelry biz that will make stuff for me and are cool enough to charge me reasonably for labor since I like to provide the stones and gold.

Enamel gives cleaner look on a smaller area

True, just never been a fan of the enamel.

Custom ring I had done in 18k wg/50 grams with a satin & high polish finish About 5cts of 5 pts and the stones on the side are a lil over half a carat each. Don't mind my ugly sketch haha

Getting a Jesus Piece made by IceBox. Will got in contact with me and gave me a pretty fair number. If any of you guys are considering getting anything made by IceBox make sure you get in contact with WILL and mention Niketalk because the price he gave me was significantly cheaper than what the people in his shop originally quoted me at

Now I just have to wait 4-6 weeks for it to be completed.

Yeah I like simple gold and white gold with diamonds not color diamonds too much seems too childish and you know resell value is basically nothing but scrap

They didn't take into account the cost of maintaining a piece of jewelry that is 24k...

There is nothing to maintain

If you take care if your gold you should be good

I don't know about the resell bit. Ben is trying to market these items as art and exclusive collaborations. I can see them retaining value or increasing.

That said, I agree on the colorful stuff looking childish. I'd rock it tho; won't lie.

imagine buying a bape x cud x ben baller chain if your NOT cudi?

Nah man, 24k is super soft... unless it's extremely heavy, it will be pretty easy to damage.

You can tell that Ben looks up to Jacob

U would pay far less than he paid. I grab info and P’s pieces whenever I can.

 

[rich4eva]

Many people are inspired by nigo and the pieces Pharrell pieces... they just cost so much dudes could not genuinely buy that type of stuff back then. Just from knowing what prices are for this stuff. When Jacob did those pieces they were 250k plus for just pendants. All the multi colored ape heads were 65 to 80k each before the chain. How many of these guys were seeing that type of money in 05

that looks a lot like a Jesus that's on johnny dang's website but it looks a lot better in your photos from the way it looks on their website

I think they may have made SpiffTV's Tito inspired Jesus
