Melt my grandmother's old gold jewelry to make some new jewelry, maybe a necklace?

Posted in Melting Gold about 1 year ago, 6 replies

I have lot of gaudy jewelry that my grandmother left me. Most of it is gold and I was wondering if I could have someone melt it and make something new out of it that I would wear. Where would I find that kind of service?

I just had a jeweler give me a price to melt some gold concentrate flakes to a nugget. This is a very small amount and they wanted 125.00 before buying a chain to put it on.... The gold is only worth maybe 50.00 so what's the point?

Anyway, though you might want to know. Maybe just sell your gold the way it is, and buy something with the credit?..

I have a lot of gold jewerely and would like to know if there is somewhere near to melt it all down and make a bangle out of it.

I will buy the gold from you based on the daily rate of gold. I just moved to Washington from LA and everyone I have compared myself to pays far less than what I will pay you. You can email me at catherinegold@comcast.net

Maybe now would be a good time to learn how to melt it down yourself. A crucible and torch would work.

about all one can do is melt it into a "nugget"
