THE PRIME BOTTLE

“This is one of my favorite pieces and one of the most expensive projects made by TraxNYC. The whole order totals $2,000,000.00, which is unheard of in the jewelry business. It’s like winning a jackpot, really. Creating something that expensive, just a fully solid gold bottle, was super fun. 

PRIME is one of the biggest energy drinks in the world right now. The PRIME team was super cool, and they planned an entire event around this piece, which was pretty wild. In the end,  someone won a half-million-dollar bottle.

I love designing outstanding pieces, and you don’t get something like this often. You don’t get many people telling you, ‘Yeah, I want a whole gold bottle, full size.’ It was sick. 

It was an amazing and unique challenge. Regular casting houses couldn’t handle something of this magnitude, so we had to find a specialized one. We had to figure out how to assemble it, including ensuring the cap could screw on and off properly. There were numerous little hurdles, and sometimes things went wrong. For instance, during a test melt, the bottle exploded.

We had to investigate it further. Initially, the bottle contained zinc, which had a different melting point, causing the explosion. We removed the zinc and crafted the bottle from pure gold, which was another challenge due to the softness of 24k gold. Polishing and shaping it was tough, but we succeeded. In the end, someone won a half-million-dollar gold bottle. Despite the complexities, the project was incredibly rewarding”.

NATURAL DIAMOND CHAIN AND PENDANT SET for PAULY D 

“I love challenges, and this time, I challenged myself with a one-month timeframe for this Custom Natural Diamond Chain and Pendant set for Pauly D. I promised and kept my word, but it required many hours of work without sleep for the TraxNYC production team. I worked during the day and joined the production from 12 am until 6 am. My flight was at 8 am, so I took the flight in my pajamas because I had no time to change. But the outcome was worth it – the joy I saw in Pauly’s eyes and his satisfaction. Not only did I deliver within the timeframe, but it was also his dream piece, and we made it happen with dedication and attention to every detail. I love my job and am proud to be part of the TraxNYC family.”

CUSTOM GRILLZ

“My favorite project has to be grillz because they truly complete your jewelry outfit. When you have the rings, the chain, and the watch, the final touch is the grillz. With them, you’re fully dripped, fully bustdown, and completely decked out in TraxNYC style”.
