    Default Reticulated Riveted Shield Pendant with Mirror Topaz cab

    Finally got around to riveting the bits together

    Forgot what a sod little silver rivets can be!

    Click Thumbnail for closeup - actual pendant measures 21mm diameter so the thumbnail should be about lifesize.

    Looks great - that's another skill I'm going to have to learn if you can do things like that with rivets. I remember the subject of reticulation coming up before, it to do with how you heat the metal is'nt it? If you have an tech. info please let me know.

    Still so many things to learn and try (sighs).

    All things are possible - if you look at them the right way!

    Nice to see the finished article!

    Really like the contrast between the oxidised and polished areas - I'm a big fan of contrasting textures used this way
