Malarky (or Barry):

Would it be possible to make different-colored-striped titanium blings? Like this:

If so, what would be the maximum number of different colors allowed, and would the buyer be able to choose how many stripes went on the eyelets? 

So sorry, but this is just not possible as there is no good way to tape perfect stripes in this fashion.  

Barry I asked a while ago what size the bling tunnels go to the saddle shape vs the very large front flare to accomdate the gems. I hope tha makes sense because it was very confusing when I asked originally haha.

Sooooo I have a question.

Of course I've been eyeing up super blings--they're totally sweet!  And I know that I'd want titanium super blings to add that level of awesome.  BUT.  I can't for the life of me find the master gem list! There's no real complete list of center gems and rim gems, and no color chart for the cabs . . . maybe I'm missing something?  I've read most of this thread, and the stuff here is GORGEOUS, but I want to start making my own and I'm stymied!

 Maybe the cabs aren't technically offered yet or something? 

Cabs are not ready (yet) for center stones. I am doing research to make this happen in a way that does not break the bank. The cabs we use now (except all the synthetic opals) are actually genuine stones as that what always looks the best.

Malarky: can you get a center stone chart together for me? :P

I am thinking that the correct answer is 1" as thats when the outer stones get bigger. Let me know if this is not the answer you are looking for.

Barry, I was wondering if rainbow Ti is always colored like this: http://www.anatometal.com/jewelry/BAF/IMG_9913SMALL.jpg or if I have to make note that I want it done like that when I order my eyelets.

I pretty much just let our titanium color god do what he thinks looks best... seems to work out every time. Think of "rainbow" as a rainbow.... the color pattern will all be in the same order everytime. The reason for this is that we have to change the voltage on our power supply to get the color we want, and then dip the jewelry into an electrolytic solution to thicken the oxide layer (this is what refracts the colors that you see). This has to be done in a specific order, otherwise the item being colored will wind up being all one color.

My head hurts now.

On the DF Bling Eyelets.... What does that back side look like? Reason for my question is this:

 I really like the blings but I also like just a plain DF eyelet. Due to the cost of both my thought is to purchase the blings that I'd like and then have the ability to wear them backwards when I want just the plain eyelet look. Does this make any sense?

If you had a picture of the backs of a larger pair of blings (I am at 1") and were willing to post I'd really appreciate it greatly and it would help me to decide what to do.

Thanks a million!

 

1" front and back 

We make them so when you wear them the opposite way they look like regular double flared eyelets. 

they're not on there, emma. I'll pick up a pair tomorrow and take some pics. But I mean they're gemmed eyelets with some CZ's in the middle. They look just like superblings, it scares me. haha.

Thanks barry! I was hoping for the answer of 5/8ths because I like how they look better with the saddle shape, with out the over hang in the front flare for the gems, which is just ridiculous since you can't tell in ear, but anyway thats my new goal/ending point. I'll just have to settle for the other type I guess haha.

 I just thought up a second question. I "designed" my wedding jewelry today (which won't be happening for years) and I am planning on getting my conch punched before then. Are you going to be offering the colored single gem plugs in SF ever? I know you can get the CZ ones in SF but I want my conch to match everything which will be either emerald or saphire.

We offer colored stones up to 1" (and down to 8ga) in SF and DF. These are in stock.

Barry, would you happen to have a picture of a size somewhere near 3/4" in the sapphire single gems....? I'm really torn between those being my first pair of anatometals in 3/4" or the peacock pattern that I really want (Teal Ti with emerald, opal, brown, sapphire, aquamarine, aquamarine, sapphire, brown cz, opal, emerald repeating and peridot center gem) Also, is there another pattern that you would think better represents the colors of a peacock? I'm super nervous about ordering them and it looking like complete clashing crap. HALP BARRY!

Thanks again Barry! I couldn't find any SF colored gem plugs on the site anywhere, only the clear CZs.

"Sapphire" is one of the colors we cannot do at 3/4" due to stone avaliability. Thats why you don't see them (sorry), but we can do them in Superblings.  

Thanks Barry
