[onemancult]

Please discuss.

I like it better without the gold.

[bleedxslow]

The black makes the gold look brassy. At least in that photo.

I don't think that black and gold work very well together. I don't know if you made this or not, but maybe white gold or silver would look better. With the gold there's too much contrast, it makes it look really busy and exciting, and in my opinion jewelry shouldn't attract so much attention.

[onemancult]

Yeah, I made this. Been crafting jewelry for awhile. The gold chain is completely adjustable from one end, it can be re-attached to hang at a different length and whatnot, so it can be worn differently than pictured.

I'm not crazy about the black and gold, but it looks a bit better in person than it does in the photo. I'm going to try something similar with black and silver in the near future.

i like the design but i don't like the way that gold and black, in this case, look together.

i think it'd look better in silver.

[mspark]

The black and silver would look better i think. Post when its made.

[ge0ffzilla]

I like it, but then again i'm vietnamese and I have a softspot for gold..

[xcoldricex]

thumbs down

[sunny]

take off the gold chain, but keep the ring.

[onemancult]

Here's a black/silver version, with black and silver rings I just threw together.

Feedback greatly appreciated.

Like it alot better in this color. Are you selling these?

[doctorgnar]

Been crafting jewelry for awhile.

From your pics the black and silver looks a lot nicer.

What does your other stuff look like, and do you sell anything?

I've been looking for a chain lately, but I haven't found anything I'd wear.

What he said.

[isdenn]

the two chains kinda fuck it up in my opinion

i would ditch the black chain and just keep the black and silver rings...or just the silver ring even. but then again i like jewelry to be simple

[xcoldricex]

i don't like the chain spiraling around the other, it might just look better if they were kept separate. but maybe its just that the two chains fuck it up like isdenn said (which i think may be the case).

anyhow. onemancult. would like to see your other work- pm me if needed.

silver/white works alot better than the gold/black imo....i dunno, not that much into jewlery though...i just wear a long silver chain with a cross on it.

[thelion1856]

i dont know about that, something bout the color of the gold makes me think it looks fake. Try buying some real gold instead. 18 karots is the way to go.

Also the way its intertwined like that makes it look like something a gay person would do with his boyfriend sorta like promis rings for straight couples. Although i know people in our gay community might be loving this. Icould see this in the gay clubs, dudes there rock things similar to this.

I think It would look better single and not twirrled like that. But thats my opinion. Looks alright though

[xcoldricex]

also the different sized links might be adding to the problem

[simcoo]

why not jus keep the black chain, but use black and gold/silver rings?

imo those might work better

[ardeetee]

wow weird, I had something just like that on my mind last week so I made one very similar. I ended up giving it to a good friend of mine though... creepy

[onemancult]

Thanks all for the input, I totally appreciate it.

Most people seem to like the two-chain model in person;

I guess it depends on your taste and whether or not you

like minimal/maximal design.

Me selling anything like these is contingent upon me finding more of the plain ring pendants. I picked up a handful from a flea market and have used them all up for other pieces that I've made and sold/given to friends.

I've cleaned out most of my stock of necklaces, besides things that I've kept for myself.

But, I'm gearing up to produce another series of pieces for Winter, so I'll probably post those whenever they're done.

If anyone's interested in pricing, I usually sell pieces like those pictured for $50 shipped. SF junkies can grab em for $40.

silver jewelry looks horrible and cheap.

stick with the gold.

[onemancult]

Funny, lots of people think gold looks horrible and cheap.

I used to agree, but lately I find it a bit more interesting to work with.
