My latest design

[enigma]

Not very exciting compared to what some of you post but I felt I should share photos too.
Most of my work involves horsehair, this is one of very few things that doesn't although even this has been designed so it can have a braid where the mane is lol.
Pierced from 1.5mm sheet and then shaped with files to give a slight 3D shape.
The mane detail is engraved and then oxidised.
The hardest thing was getting a decent photo!
22mm wide.

Looks great and nice to see an original variation on the heart theme. I'm sure your customer will love it!

Interesting design. Looks like you're having a bit of a gold rush over there, Sarah?

This is actually from a photo of the customers own horse so extra special for them

Thanks very much metalsmith
The horse had a particularly interesting jaw line so I really wanted to capture that .
