Abstract
A method of manufacturing an article of jewelry with a druzy or geode effect, the method including: forming an adhesion mixture by mixing metal particles with a silica, shell, and/or clay with polymer, optionally in a liquid to form an adhesion paste; applying the adhesion mixture to an article of jewelry; applying a plurality of gemstones to the applied adhesion mixture to form a gemstone layer; melting the adhesion mixture without significantly melting the article of jewelry; and cooling the adhesion mixture to bond the gemstone layer to the article of jewelry.
Claims19
A method of manufacturing an article of jewelry with a druzy or geode effect, the method comprising:
- a) forming an adhesion mixture by mixing metal particles with a silica to form an adhesion paste;
- b) applying the adhesion mixture to the article of jewelry;
- c) applying a plurality of gemstones to the applied adhesion mixture to form a gemstone layer;
- d) melting the metal particles and silica without substantially melting the article of jewelry;
- and e) cooling the melted particles and silica to bond the gemstone layer to the article of jewelry.
A method of manufacturing an article of jewelry with a druzy or geode effect, the method comprising:
