New handmade jewellery (a sneak peek!)
I’ve been working hard to pin down designs for a new range of handmade jewellery, which I hope to have in production very soon. So I thought I’d share a sneak peek with you.
At the moment I’m at the stage of testing the designs I’ve put together in silver, along with determining final shapes, finishes, findings and any other materials I might use.
Here you can see some test pieces and some gemstones I’m looking at using – they are a long way off being finished, of course.
Some of the designs require a step back to the original artwork to make some adjustments. A design might look great on paper, but when cut out in silver it may prove to have weak points or be difficult to complete reliably for some reason.
And sometimes a design can be problematic enough that it never gets any further than an initial test!
I should have more of this work in progress to show you shortly – and I hope to have it all finalised and in production in the next week or two. Can’t wait!
