Theme Competition February 2015 - Love

[Tabby66]

My entry for this month's competition......love birds in a pierced oval with a fresh water pearl. The pendant articulates on the bail, the birds tails and the pearl cap are made of 9ct gold. The pearl cap is a domed disc, filed in to shape to give detail with a 3 square needle file and has a small jump ring soldered on the top and a straight 'pin' of wire (textured to increase adhesion) which goes in to the pearl......

a simple one again from me. I bought some opal rough via ebay, and this is my first pop at giving any some shape.
The pendant is about 20mm wide, made from 0.8mm and 1.5mm sheet, a wee bit of keum-boo, some oxidisation, the moon is 0.5mm reticulated sterling and the whole thing is filled with resin.
It's 'I love you to the moon and back'.
I'm diabetic, I can't take all this sweetness!
