Anticlastic Collar & Flower Pendant

This sterling silver collar and flower pendant was a consignment for my best friends 25th wedding anniversary. Her husband love's her so much.

14k Iolite ring

This is my latest recycled gold project! I love the Iolite stones because they change color from blues to lavenders.

Repousse & Chasing

My first attempt at repousse & chasing! Repousse is used to work on the reverse of the metal to form a raised design on the front, chasing is used to refine the design on the front of the work by sinking the metals.

My outlined design.

About halfway done.

Finally finished.

 I was so excited that it actually looked like a horse and not a dog!

Anticlastic sterling silver and coral bangle bracelet.

This is another anticlastic design I made for my best friend Bonnie's birthday. It turned out so well I think I will have to make one for myself but with turquoise beads instead.

Sterling silver anticlastic collar

It's finally finished! I have been working on this collar for several months now. I started out with a design in mind but the more I worked on it the more the design changed... The last change was after coming across the beautiful drusy gemstone at the Tucson Gem and Mineral show in February.
