Well I spent a couple hours on the Tradeshop site sifting through many many designs and picked out some of my favorites which include some very detailed platinum work...I love all of these designs and thought it would be fun to share with all of you..Enjoy

Are those prongs cast or am I dreaming

There were some mixed reviews about Tradeshop on an older thread... but if one likes celtic designs, that is surely a great place

And that H&A intro (AGS specials?) is something I have not seen a couple of months ago, at my last tradeshop click

Their bezel-set trillion solitairs are right on target for my taste

Not sure what to call this type of eclectic operation, but here is one more (smaller site, similar technicals and a few nice designs).

I have read many good things about them, besides the one post on Pricescope you are referring too..




These designs are all from the drawing board to carving the wax to custom production and really struck me..

No direct contact with these guys yet (first e-mail remained unaswered, so I never lookek back), but I am glad to hear any good reviews esp. that you like their things. And yes, I surely love their "production line" approack: in fcat, I would not have it any other way...
Thanks for bringing Tradeshop on display here again

Well, imagine my suprize when I walked into this thread, and saw some things I really enjoyed making with the folks. One of the things I try to do is to show more than just the finished piece, but rather I enjoy showing the custom waxes, celtic masters and letting a person see the steps which all snap together for breathtaking custom.

My thing is I wanted to explain with my first posting that after thirty five years of running Oregon's largest union wholesale tradeshop and perhaps I can say that ideas do not get "dumbed down" here. I hope that by treating each job as the onlhy project in the world each might be all they can be...

So, for my first post here on pricescope I want first to thank Colored Gem Nut for showing off some of the most fun projects here, and putting a very large smile on this old tradeshopper, on the very last day of the year.

WOW this is a blast from the past. Mine is the 7th from the top. Ray made it for me after I got back from the invasion of Iraq. I am in the Marines and decided to pop the question.

He did it in a MONTH from start to finish and I truly felt like I was his only customer. THESE guys ROCK ! ! ! no pun intended. The Fiance loved it. The night I gave it to her the room was light only by candle light and it threw the most brilliant sparkles around the room. I couldn''t have dreamed that one up. Completely blew her away.

thanks again Ray. When I inherit those millions from the long lost Aunt I will keep ya busy for months.

wow... I really like #9 - the engraving is so unique and detailed... it tells a wonderful story vs "just" looking pretty (which it also does well lol) and that''s just almost unheard of these days but very respected! yay!

I didn''t realize someone had given an almost 3 year bump to this thread!
 
Hey, Tradeshop is right in my town!! I live in Porltand, OR..

Ray---you still have a Tim N. working for you? My old boyfriend in the 90s was a good friend of his & he housesat for them a few summers in a row. He & Katy are good people--That was my first induction into the world of gorgeous jewelry...her sapphire engagement ring was to die for.

I personally LOOOOVE Tradeshops website & peruse for eyecandy purposes on a regular basis.

I have been forever ruined.
