Jewelry designer Pablo Cimadevila recently posted a video showing how he made 18K gold AirPods.

We aren’t talking about gold plating here. He broke down his AirPods, made a cast and melted his own gold.

And the final product, which is not for sale, functions just fine. He calls his creation “AirGolds.”

The 11-minute video has gotten quite a bit of attention — it has 21 million views so far.

On his popular YouTube channel, Cimadevila also posted a video about turning two hex nuts into a 1 carat diamond ring.

Wilkerson: “They Feel Like Family”

Newton’s Jewelers in Fort Smith, Ark., was a true institution. But after being at the helm for most of his life, owner (and descendent of the original founder) Kelly Newton decided it was time to retire. He chose Wilkerson to handle the sale. “I’ve known the owners of Wilkerson for a long, long time. I felt at home with them,” he says. The final retirement sale was just a “blast” and the Wilkerson sales team made it so very simple and straightforward, says Newton. Would he recommend Wilkerson to others? Absolutely. “They’ve done incredible work,” says Newton. “They feel like family.”
