New Work

I've been itching to make this ever since I received this piece of Fordite the other day and realized how cool it would be to make a reversible pendant out of it, since it is equally beautiful from either side, with different colors and patterns to complement varying outfits and occasions...

opal pendant goldI wish I could capture the true nature of this stone better in photos; it's so much prettier in real life - it actually seems to glow... by far the prettiest opal I've ever seen.

Oink.

I made this pendant today...

pig necklace
It's recycled sterling silver with a little piggy in recycled 14k gold. Oh, and a 14k gold border as well. I think it turned out really cute, although I have been having trouble getting the finish to be perfectly mirror-shiny... I may keep this one for myself; I'm kind of attached to it. I'll try to get some better pictures tomorrow - I just snapped this one as I'm wearing it here in the studio.
