I may need to jump on that..Anyone have any experience with Limaxi? I’ve read they use melt down gold (idk how different that makes it someone fill me in) and also heard their clasps get loose over time..

 

[rwfanatic]

I’ve never been a fan of their links. They look more rounded than any of the other popular makers.

B Beam Several people here have purchased from Limaxi. The experience is super legit. Dude ships overnight and it’s factored into price. The only downside is he only accepts bank wire. I guess you could say these are “rounded” but most jewelers in FL will work with what you wanna do.

Little over a month since I put my order in with Tajewelers. I haven't received the CAD rendering for my approval as of yet as I've been told the design is intricate and they are still working on it, which is fair I guess... eager to see it, though.

Update after almost two months of waiting Tajewelers refunded me and said they don’t want to work with me anymore because I am super picky. The CAD renderings had my Madonna piece cross eyed and I kept telling them to fix it and they got mad.

I will give an in depth explanation when I have the opportunity to sit down and put together everything, but in the mean time I highly encourage everyone to AVOID James Ta jewelers and everyone associated with his family. They have a quality product that is ruined by a sense of entitlement and lack of professionalism. I am still mind blow by what transpired. Here’s a cliff hanger until I get a chance to settle in. ( This is a copy of an invoice I was sent )

I feel your pain.

Glad you got your money back, sucks that they were trying to pass off subpar work

 

[freshpairs]

Idk why yall still mess with tajewelers. After seeing someone in here getting lab diamonds in their piece it was reason enough to stay away.

 

[cronicmolemolereturns]

With that said, jeweler recommendations that have a similar style to Tajewlers would be appreciated.

Sorry to hear man. Do you have any photos of what they presented you vs what you showed them?

Good looks bro..Real nice set up, whats the specs on the Limaxi?

 

[Dhizzle]

Just hit up maxair59 with your design and see what he can do. I bet his price will be much lower than Ta’s. I just got my new pendant from him last month and now awaiting a cuban bracelet next week. satisfied with both price and craftmanship

B Beam 14k / 24” / 7.4mm / 104g

Damn. Seems like they just have all around terrible customer service. Sucks too because their work is top notch. Hope you find another jeweler that exceeds your expectations homie.

for the jewelrs on her or people who have done it before, how do they make the bail bigger on your pendant? what's the process?

typically i start from scratch make the bail per your size requirements.

thanks. the bail is already iced out so i would not want anyone to redoe the whole thing

how do you wanna make it bigger? Wider?

 

[bale]

not a jeweler nor did I ever have this done but I think they would just cut it all the way thru, heat it, stretch it & solder another piece of gold to make it larger. stones would complicate or limit this, I think.

 

[frank mucus]

I've seen jewelers cut the top of the bail or make it rounded out to accommodate a bigger chain, which is what was done on ninja's piece. Other ones cut the back of the bail and replace it with a locking mechanism so you can open the bail from the back so you can put a chain on instead of sliding it through the bail.

Regardless, it's going to be tough if you have diamonds and you might need to get it replaced with a bigger bail altogether
