Well this is my entry for now, again a piece made earlier this year, although it is still a work in progress as I need to make the chain clasp for this, but the initial inspiration was deffiniately "fall". Its made from silver and copper Mokume gane, which was made by me and sapphires, zircon, amethyst and garnet.

That's spectacular Lucy.

wow, just what Carole said...

Thank you guys

I hope I can finish the chain and clasp to post that also as I think the finished piece will look so much better, but with just starting Uni, this may be all I get chance to do.

Lucy - I love it. It would be great to see another pic on a future date if you do more work on it.

Earrings & necklace inspired by designs from "The Night Circus". The cz's represent droplets of water running off the leaves.
The leaves were all filed to shape by hand and the larger leaves were slightly textured and then formed by repousse (my first try at this technique)

The total drop of the earrings is 3.5cm and the pendant is just under 4.5cm.
The little leaf dangle on the pendant is 0.7cm long

Sorry about the quality of the photographs - I'm moving my studio around and all my regular photography equipment is in boxes!
