Mabes Makes: Easy Cheese Scones
A mouth watering, easy cheese scone recipe. Perfect served warm with butter....
Today we’re taking a look at a special, one-of-a-kind item: the Ruby Dreamcatcher. We spoke to Kathleen McFarlane, a member of family-owned business Love Is, to find out more about this luxury and limited edition piece...
We’ve always wanted to create a whimsical statement piece of our own. At the same time, we knew that contemporary technology was something we would like to look into. So, the Ruby Dreamcatcher was the perfect piece to try including 3D printing in our jewelry production workflow.
As usual, the entire process was kicked off with pen and paper. Esther carefully sketched the pieces and perfected the designs.
Then, the designs were sent to be translated into a 3D model.
The 3D model was then printed in hard wax.
Next, an imprint was made in silicon before the actual piece was cast from 18ct gold.
Once cast, Esther finished the piece by filling off the rough edges and created the settings for the three droplets.
Then the piece was sent off to the setter to be encrusted with rubies and diamonds.
Finally, the pendant was sent back to us to be polished and for the chain to be attached… et voila! The Ruby Dreamcatcher was ready to shine all on its own.
The resulting necklace is dripping in rubies and diamonds and radiates indulgent luxury:
