I know. I should have bunnies right now. Instead I have Hearts and another Ginkgo Leaf.
The matching set of heart pendant and earrings are on their way to their new owner.
And here's the back sides of them. They are created completely with chasing and repoussé. You can see the little tool marks on both sides.
Yes, I can create more like this. Yet every single heart will be slightly different, each one unique because I freeform sculpt each one with my little chasing tools and hammers. I don't use a mold or form.
I also finished a sterling silver Gingko Leaf Pendant for my online shop.
Again, every leaf is individually handsawn and hammered out, using no molds or forms. Every one is unique and has its own special magic.
I like the heart set...very unique.
ReplyDeleteAs usual, your gingko leaf is amazing!
A side note...Mark finally has his blacksmith shop up and running at our new place. Hooray! The sound of hammering is back!
Lots of jewelry from you lately! Do you enjoying making some of the smaller stuff, after doing those huge projects?

Yes, definitely. I'm going to focus on jewelry and small artworks for awhile- much less stressful for me.
