I’m kinda busy right now, too busy to do anything but this one job — I’m right in the middle of sorting out the hundreds of 18k and 24k gold jewelry items I made back in the day when I could do that sort of thing. I’m planning on doing a meltdown of all the unsold gold items and then selling the melted gold at the gold melt price. This includes many amulets, solid 24k gold repousse works and all manner of solid 18k gold wire items, many Rumi hearts, etc.

Why am I doing this? Because gold is $1300 an ounce, which makes it totally unaffordable even to the very rich. My jeweler friends tell me that they haven’t sold anything but wedding sets for the past 10 years, and that at $35 an ounce, silver is hard to sell, too.

The fact is that high-grade 18k and 14k gold jewelry — the kind I used to sell through Isis Gallery on Rodeo Drive — just isn’t selling anymore, and won’t again in my lifetime, at least not as personal jewelry. So, it’s time for my jewelry collection to go into the melting pot. My silver rings will soon join the gold, and when the time is right, I’ll melt down the copper rings, necklaces & bracelets, too.

See You At The Top!!!
