Studio Update- a belt buckle I like

I finished a belt buckle that I like!  This is almost a collage-style using copper and brass sheet metal.  At the overlap of the copper and brass, the brass sheet folds back, making an edge that looks like an abstract stem for the rose.




During my non-metalshop time, I finished up a crocheted silver rope necklace with citrine beads.  I used to do a lot more metal crochet back in the early nineties, when I was still in grad school.  I still get the urge to make sparkly fiberart jewelry, sometimes all in metal, sometimes incorporating other natural fibers.
