I would like to make some custom jewlery for something to do in spare time for myself, freidns, and family possibly turn into a business. What do i need to get started? i already have a diamond importer that i have bought from before i just want to know what i need to make the metal molds and settings for diamonds.

How do I go about doing this if I live in an expensive city with many nice stores. Am I too young to sell my creations in a store? How many things do I have to have to sell? Are there any places you can think of that would alow me to sell my things that wouldn’t be such an expensive place? Like are there any chain stores that would allow me to sell my pieces?

What is the best metal to use in jewlery making, that will not tarnish?

I recently purchased silver plated metal, does anybody know how well that will hold up? And does gold plated metal tarnish also?

What chemicals or chemical reactions are used in jewlery making?

This helps somewhat. It’s for my chemistry class. We have to list 5 chemicals or chemical reactions that are used in different occupations. Mine is jewelry making. I will see if these work. They can’t just be elements such as gold, silver, copper, etc.
