Guns as jewelry

[Linda_Gasparini]

How about guns AS jewelry? I have a pair of miniature Glock .40 earrings. I cast one in sterling as a pendant, but it needs some additional work on the model to make it light enough to wear in the ear - without significantly enlarging one's earlobes, that is.

These are my idea of guns as jewelry.

How about guns AS jewelry?

I'm sure there would be a strong market for that in the US. Same as for racing enthusiasts jewelry. I was approached by a auto racing club to make rings with specific racing tire tread patterns. It wasn't my thing, but the amount of interest made me think that a person could make a living just making racing tire jewelry. Mark

Thats fun. When I worked as a gun smith I wore lots of bullets and miniature knives, I never got around to miniature guns. I think I would have gone for a Colt 1911 though. :) Sheri

As I looked at that beautiful set of dueling pistols, it reminded me of my favorite episode of Antique Roadshow.

A young man brought in a pair of dueling pistols left to him through his father from a great great grandfather. The expert went on the explain they weremade by a British family owned company which specialized in dueling pistols. During there 40 years they produced some limited number which I don't remember, but they were famous for their dueling pistols at that time. He went on to explain that they numbered every set the made sequentially with the number on the grips butt plate. He then held up the pistols to show the young man the numbers 1 and 2 on the butt plate. He thought they were the first dueling pistol set made and that they would bring between $1.5 and $2 million at auction.

I wonder what my Daisy would bring?
