I went and made another pendant this weekend. I have lots of women in my life that have requested custom jewelry, so I figured I better get on it! I have lots of silver, a few gems, and just a bit of gold laying around and so I no longer have excuses not to make something. I made this using all the techniques I learned in my class but I did my own design instead of copying off of a design my teacher, Poppy, made. I am going to give it to my Mom but my girlfriend spent yesterday wearing it and does not want to part with it. I have a square piece of labradorite picked out for her in due time.
This is made of silver and just a little bit of gold wrapping the solder joints around the silver wire loops. It’s not perfect and I see every flaw when I look at it, but it is only my 3rd price of custom jewelry. I learned how to bezel fit a pear shaped stone so that was cool I guess. Ever onward!
