Many jewelry designers source some of their materials from the hardware store. We might be tempted to dismiss these as boho jewelry and not really high-end.  However, innovative Spanish metalsmith Pablo Cimadevila whose work I featured before, will change minds!

What he does is to turn 2 humble hex nuts into a 1 carat diamond ring!

He explained in the info part of his video, "After 20 years of crafting jewelry sometimes I need to challenge myself just for the pleasure of creating." He clearly can craft the same engagement ring design using precious metals like 18 K white gold or platinum.  But the brass ring looks just as good after he polished it up.
