We are able to laser weld gold and platinum by directing a laser beam to the exact point of needed fusing. It is a heatless process, which puts less stress on the piece. We are able to perform finer and closer work with more precision. Many pieces of jewelry can be worked without removing any gemstones.
Laser welding is considered cutting edge technology for platinum.
Better Ring Sizing When sizing rings to a larger size, The Diamond Cellar utilizes a dovetail technique. Two V's are cut into the base of the shank and a piece inserted, and then welds are made to seam the shank back together. This technique allows for better wear on the shank over time.
