The GoldShop Globe
So you
have seen the image of the gold nugget globe that I (Cordell Kent) made using a state of
the art LaserStar welder. This globe was made as a test of the ability of the
Laser welder to work with a difficult medium, to make a difficult shape, using
space age technology. The effect is nothing short of stunning. Most people look
at the nugget globe and see a roughly round shape, made from natural gold
nuggets. Few people think about how difficult this was to make, and the
technology that was used to make it. Click Here for the full story

Created from natural gold nuggets, all from the local goldfields, solid 9 carat yellow gold wire, and solid 9ct yellow gold chain, this very unique piece as made into stunning jewellery by Cordell Kent using his (space age) laser welder, and a hole lot of artistic and technical skill.

The Southern Cross, nugget pendant.
I have made a solid 9 ct yellow gold cross, with 5 natural gold nuggets in the form of the star constellation known as the “Southern Cross.”
To the early gold miners on the Ballarat goldfields the Southern Cross constellation was unique as it can not be seen from the countries they had mostly come from. It reminded them that they were in a new country and that this country was full of hopes for freedom and wealth.
