More Preview Designs

My 'Harmony' collection is really taking shape now, and I am particularly proud of this design. The large open flower is made of fused silver, slightly hammered to give it an organic texture, with a freshwater pearl in the centre. The earrings are large and very dramatic, while the single flower as a pendant is striking, but subtle
.

The pearl scroll earrings are made by hammering silver wire on a texture block and then burnishing the highlights to create an almost sparkling effect. I have used soft, blue shades of pearls with the scroll designs. There's only one in the photo, because i lost the other prototype, I can now join the rest of my customers who frequently ask to buy one earring to replace a lost one.

Harmony Collection

Here are some sneak peeks at my new collection. It should be complete in a couple of weeks, and will launch on my new online shop, as well as in the Artery shops in Scotland.

New Collection in the Works

With a new set of tools, materials and ideas, I am excitedly working away at my new collection. Entitled 'Harmony' it is a series of designs using sterling silver and gold wire, and freshwater pearls. The designs are freeform, with flowing lines, and play with contrasting subtle textures with smooth surfaces. This is the first collection where I have used two tones of metal colours, and I am enjoying playing with the variations. I have also invested in a new camera, so I will post some images as soon as I can.
