Yes, it's my jeweler's bench. It's a big, giant mess! Boy, do I love tools! See that little white gold ring on the steel bench plate (bottom left). It's going to be one of these 14k white gold birthstone stacking rings:

What is White Palladium Gold?

Traditionally, gold has been "whitened" by alloying gold with nickel. Because many people are allergic to nickel, it's good to find a white gold alloy that's nickel-free. White palladium gold uses palladium (instead of nickel) to mask gold's yellow color. Palladium is a member of the platinum family--a precious metal in its own right.
