How is working with gold different to working with silver?
I've set gemstones in silver for a long time, I enjoy it and have become fairly good at it. However my girlfriend has hinted that it would mean a lot to her if I set the diamond in her engagement ring. Now that I'm thinking of proposing, how different would it be to set a gemstone in 18ct white gold as opposed to silver? I'm guessing it would be a lot lot softer than silver and a lot of care would have to be taken. All advice appreciated
I would be setting the stone in a pre-notched setting. I can only set the stones and haven't done any kind of casting yet. So I'll be buying a pre-made setting for the ring
How sweet!
What you're thinking is pretty much exactly right--gold is softer, and, because of the expense, you have to be considerably more careful so as to avoid screwing up your setting and having to make/buy a new one. You didn't mention how you get your settings, so I have a couple of suggestions to help ease the stress.
1) Consider using a prenotched setting from Rio Grande. You can order them separately and solder it onto a band, or order the entire ring. Saves a lot of work, and makes it a whole lot easier.
2) Since the stone in question is a diamond, consider casting the stone in place. You didn't mention how much of the metal work you do yourself, so if you have no idea what I'm talking about, don't try it.
Finally, if you normally use premade settings, the difference won't be as noticeable as if you were actually making the entire ring from scratch. Be extra gentle, and you should be okay.
