Cold connections!
I was given the almost impossible task of making a brooch to be presented in the House of Lords which was to include anodised aluminium, silver, gold and opal!
I came up with this design where the whole thing is kept together with tabs which fold around the back. I'm fairly happy with it, although as usual, I might have changed things a bit if I had my time over again. It's not 100% finished as I'm waiting for my customer to decide on an inscription for the back, so you can just see the tabs.

Wow that's lovely. I like the colour of the opal and the aluminium back plate. (Actually I like all of it )
-
That is breathtakingly wonderful
-
Thanks very much. I would have preferred it without the aluminium really, but that was the most important bit to the customer.
-
That's a lovely combination of colour and texture, very beautiful
-
I think you've been jolly clever Carole - I think I might have run away from that one!
-
That's wonderful Carole!
Was the picture taken in your lovely new light box...?
-
Thanks everyone. Yes it was taken in the lightbox Lauren. I'm loving it, particularly now that I've had a lesson on getting the right camera settings. Now I look at it though, it looks as though there's a crease in the top, which isn't actually there.
-
Ooo that is really nice! Very clever getting all that into one piece as well.
-
That's an heirloom quality piece Carole. Pity to part with it really. Dennis.
