Jewelry Metal Weight convertion

In jewelry design and production, we’ve noticed that many clients and industry peers often struggle with metal weight conversions and density-to-price ratios, frequently requiring multiple sources for reference.

To simplify this process for everyone—and for ourselves—we’ve created this one-stop tool page. Here, you can quickly convert weights between wax models and metals, view real-time metal reference prices and densities, and streamline your workflow.
