  • Patent number: 6601301
    Abstract: Process for making jewels such as necklaces, bracelets or the like with different colors on at least two of their faces in sight so that a user can choose to put on the necklace or jewel so as to show one face or the other of the jewel according to the wished color, for instance the user can show a white gold face or a yellow gold face. In general, the process in question consists of a first phase in which noble metal bands (3, 4) showing different colors are put near each other. Then, the bands (3, 4) are coupled by welding (6) and are subjected to a second working phase in which they are bent and welded longitudinally so as to obtain a pipe (19) showing a multiple color. From this pipe (19) it is possible to obtain hollow links to be then mounted and fixed on a flexible core.

The process has two phases. In a first phase, at least two noble metal bands having different colors are placed with one long edge adjacent one another and coupled by welding. In a second phase, the welded bands are bent and welded along the free ends of the joined band to form a closed pipe having multiple colors around its circumference. The pipe is sectioned into multiple hollow links which are mounted and fixed on a flexible core to make a changeable jewelry having different appearances on two or more sides.
