As far as I know it is still the case. It makes sense. Why waste time and money making something that’s not especially artisanal and that’s widely available in bulk? Spend that time on all their more artistic pieces.

[Matt]

The reviews for the Etsy seller were all pretty good and she has a good selection so I have no reason to believe it’s not .925. Or looks shiny but I’m waiting on some tarnish to know for sure.

Funds saved = more funds for elsewhere

[Matt]

You know that’s right. Just don’t tell Josh.

[Kasi]

Yeah it’s right for you maybe

Not for me.

My opinion.

I have seen many jewellery nothing has it touch as Good Art

What Josh makes it’s his own unique style.

That’s choice is your buy it or don’t

I will ask Josh about that

[Matt]

I got it on good authority.

…as I mentioned before: I am pretty sure that GAH does not make the ball chains but that may have changed. What they do make and always have is the connectors.

[Memphisakers]

Even if GAH doesn’t make them I’m willing to bet they aren’t buying them from China. I’m sure he is getting them from a US maker that he trust. I would be weary or hanging my 500$ pendant on a chain that isn’t from a trusted source. A fall from 4 feet on concrete would certainly leave a mark, a chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link

[Matt]

Mines Italian. Like me. I don’t personally buy too much Chinese gear although there are some Chinese makers out there who make high quality goods. In the end though it’s my opinion that my silver ball chain is just fine. Asking someone where they got their chain then disparaging that chain on the other hand…

[Memphisakers]

I definitely wasn’t knocking ya… I have no idea where your chain came from and honestly would at least consider doing the same thing. Gah didn’t invent the ball chain and there are plenty of great jewelry makers out there! I was commenting on GAH’s practice of buying ball chains instead of making them. I bet if they do still buy them they don’t buy bullshit. Their reputation depends on it

[Anesthetist]

If I remember right, GAH uses outsourced ball chain, made in the USA. PA maybe?

[Anesthetist]

@Matt I used an etsy ball chain for my Bill Wall cross and it worked just fine AND looked good to boot. Enjoy your chain and that killer pendant.
