When I told her that the old chains would become scrap and their value would be taken off the cost of my making the chain her face fell!! I told her I would put some feelers out and see what I could...
I have been asked if it is possible to make a basic trace chain out of 2 old necklaces - to which I said yes of course. The problem is the customer wants the 2 old necklaces melted down and made...
