Brother Gus, the passion you have for this fine jewelry is so evident in your videos, and this video shares the hard work you put in handcrafting every piece. I'm in Florida too and i would love to own one of your fine bracelets one day. Keep up the interesting content and thanks for sharing your passion for Miami-made jewelry with us!!!
I have the same chain as "the beast" on your site, but mine is 2.5 Kilo. Got it in Phuket Thailand for $2,700 after some haggling. Silver has gone up, but is always a great investment. Lots of nice work on your site, i'm a huge fan!
AWESOME VIDEO! Where can I find an oval mandrel/copper rod for crafting these links? Are there any stores you know of that sell them, or is it something that needs to be custom-made?
Hey I want to start doing this and I was wondering if you can make a video with a sit to get all your tools or something cheaper maybe for us beginners
Amazing Video!!! did you just wrap the silver wire onto any metal rod or do you have a specific rod? Also how would you make 7mm cuban so that link are 7mm but the lnks are spaced out so you have full necklace in less gold? So some cubans are 7mm and 24 inch chain with less gold and some have more gold, it depends on how you make the links. Do you know how that works?
I been watching your videos and the chains look nice. I had one made by a well known maker in FL took for ever and the quality was not good at all even though everyone on TH-cam recommended them.. I want a 7mm 24 let me know if this is possible and time line. I'm down to give you guys a shot. Thanks
I just got a 6mm 20 inch 10k 51.6g Miami cuban from a company called goldzenn they claim to be hand made in Miami the return address was Miami lol so who really knows its top quality and heavy af and I'm happy with it so I guess it don't matter now I'm intrigued how they make em
Labor costs are all too often overlooked by the end consumer when looking at a custom piece. Sure, the material (silver) may be trading at $19 USD per Troy Ounce but the labor costs and markup drive the price of a silver piece sky high. So, a 1 kilo silver chain has perhaps $610 USD worth of silver, but what were the labor costs, the materials consumed, wear& tear on the machinery, insurance, workers compensation insurance, for this type of labor is gonna be extremely high, etc, etc, etc. You’d have $610 worth of silver selling for a few thousand dollars.
@@HippieHempermime took about a week from ordering.. obv some are in stock. They probably do long lengths of chain then cut to length per order on 8 and 10mm.
I wouldn't have polished it. The whiteness of the silver gives it its unique aesthetic characteristic. Polished silver looks just normal stainless steel. Nonetheless, great work
Does it make sense when people buy cute silver Cuban chains you’re paying for basically the labor when you buy a gold chain Cuban you’re really only paying for the call maybe 3 to 4 dollars for labor per gram
I own both and I like to wear them both. Aside from the “investment” perspective, jewelry are meant to be worn and be decorations. One can go buy gold bars instead if investment means so much to one. Silver is extremely white compared to stainless steel and white gold, and sometimes I feel wearing monochrome rather than going for my yellow gold. It is really not much compared to same sized gold chain of any purity. Labor cost seems like a lot more because the absolute price of silver is low, so the labor occupies bigger pie chart despite the absolute cost of labor is same as gold.
Love my silver bracelet and my silver chain that you guys made only thing is ,it’s 925 not 950 so with that said my next chain you will have to make it 950 or 999 but you did do an outstanding job. Thank you.
925 means it's 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper for strength. If you do 950 that's LESS silver and MORE copper added. Value goes down quite a bit man. Too much copper.
Respect to the talented young jeweller
Absolutely stunning I just received my silver Cuban link from Gus . Exactly 16mm the best chain I ever seen . Thank you Gus …
May I ask how much you paid for the chain and how
Long did you wait to get it?
The fucking dedication is what will ALWAYS set you apart from the rest. Killing it my friend!!!
Appreciate you!!
I wasn’t even interested in a chain, and I’m getting the feeling to get one. Lol!!! Let’s go Heat!
Watching this process for years ! This is very impressive. Don't need one, but got to have this quality of craftsmanship! You guys are awesome!❤❤❤
Best looking silver chain i've seen in my life.
The polish is always my favorite part
Quality work and attention to the details is what makes a professional and you guys are prolific at the art of necklace making
Need more of these very relaxing
I just starting off. Using 3d printing until I make enough to invest in the tools to hand make them myself. Great vid
same man
I love this content and your guys products👍
Thanks for the support Andy!
@@gusvillajewelry you’re welcome the quality of your products and customer service is amazing
Watching this process from start to finish is mind blowing. I think you should make an ASMR video of the chain making process as well lol
Beautiful chain, great craftsmanship
I have the same chain and I appreciate the work that goes into it
Awesome 😎. So cool to see the incredible amount of craftsmanship that goes into making these chains & bracelets.

950 silver has benefits over 925?
Nice..im starting to be impressed by these guys
The real deal
Thank you very much

My brother please wear some protective eye gear. Beautiful work, I'm looking forward to getting some silver pieces
I’m coming for one of those haven’t decided on 12mm or 14mm
Whats better ? The traditional way (how you guys showed) or 3D printing the links ?
What’s the reason for not doing a sleek lock or diamond button on the silver chains and bracelets?
For a bracelet If 7.5 inch is a super snug fit should I get a 8 inch or 8.25 inch
I been watching your videos and the chains look nice. I had one made by a well known maker in FL took for ever and the quality was not good at all even though everyone on TH-cam recommended them..

Man! I just order one from you guys 10mm/ 22” silver with rhodium coating.
Can’t wait to get it 🇵🇷🫡
Super job sir
Awesome 🤘

When you going to re stock on gold Cubans? Your out of stock on your web site
Its not filed on bith sides?
Why are you in Iceland?
Great content really like the vlogs can't wait to get mines done I would like a 8mm 24" and a 10mm 7.5" in 950 🙏🏻
Hi bro can u tell me how long it took u until u got it ?
@@HippieHemper I think he just wanted one.
@@HippieHempermime took about a week from ordering.. obv some are in stock. They probably do long lengths of chain then cut to length per order on 8 and 10mm.
How much for a 200 gram silver chain?
How we buy in India?
How do we order. Please do let us know. I am from india.
Это просто бомба
Wait is the usual wait time?
Make some merchandise plz,…. Like hats or t shirts
I want it
I wish you guys would make a titanium option
Gus, show a GOS process
Hola amigo encuanto sale una cadena de plata gruesa pero de las gruesecillas quiero una ?
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Not the necklace in the thumbnail but ok.
😢🍭
why is the dude manually straightenting the chain at @7:08 when it was done by the machine at @6:54 ?
How much it cost's
I wouldn't have polished it. The whiteness of the silver gives it its unique aesthetic characteristic. Polished silver looks just normal stainless steel. Nonetheless, great work
Watching this process is very cool Do you have a website? I don’t want to call and haggle. 😎
Gus and Miami cuban link Elfs! 🤣😂
Who is the artist of the music in this video and what is the song title?
I'm wondering the same. I wrote a verse to it
Im trying to buy a 999 silver at manufacturer prices in miami. LMK if you guys wanna do business.
Personally, I wouldn’t want the the links Cuban style. I would want the links regular. A bigger version of the famous Tiffany silver chain necklace
Pay what the price is so he can pay his workers a good wage. Quality work
Homie wasn't even supplied with any eye protection
The reason why they cost that much is because some sucker is willing to pay it. It’s barely any work to make a Cuban link chain.
Nice. But dude should be wearing safety glasses on that cutting wheel.. I worked with a guy who learned the hard way, now he's glass eye Gregorio 💀
Does it make sense when people buy cute silver Cuban chains you’re paying for basically the labor when you buy a gold chain Cuban you’re really only paying for the call maybe 3 to 4 dollars for labor per gram
Yeah. At that point even people should
Buy white gold instead of silver

That wasn't 16 and it looks like a 22in
Please get that man some eye protection!!
im from iceland lmao
What your paying for is the labor and the huge greedy profit.
Broooooo💯🫡🫡🫡🫡
Doesn't seem THAT labor intensive esp with all the machines.
5m30, boy wear a pair of protective glasses. You are too young to loose an eye
this video would have been so much better without that awful music. great video otherwise. awesome to watch
What's wrong with Italian made lol like weird flex but okay
Silver jewellery has to be the biggest waste of time on earth🤦🏾👎🏾
Booooobooooo! factory cut chains only take an hour to reclamp and polish booooooo!An hour is not worth 75 percent premium
Terrible
@5:25 Safety Glass my Guy!!!!
Get some PPE for Edgar

@daviedood2503 actually .950 is 95% silver. The exact opposite of what you're saying.
