Eye Candy

I love creating! I am SO excited to wear this cuff out! It is literally my eye candy. I am amazed that I was able to pull it off, but I did. Unfortunately it is NOT For Sale, however, this is one piece that I am more willing to reproduce, only it will most likely be narrower. This piece is an original design which came to me one day. It is from a class assignment this year it is suppose to be Ancient Egyptian inspired, but it really looks Art -Deco. It is kind of funny since I LOVE Art-deco.

Close up with bad lighting.
I know the pictures are not the greatest, but I couldn't wait to get it posted!



Obligatory "action" shot and also for reference of how big it is.

My VERY first Silver Jewelry

My love of metal smithing (primarily silver [for now]) began with a continuing education/community education class. It was from October to November 2008

We were assigned to come up with a Hebrew inspired design. I searched everywhere and didn't come up with any inspiration and so I went with the Star of David. I need to find my artist statement. I think it is on my work computer.

Theses are the fruits of my labors!

I do have to say that this set is sale pending for $200!

When I got into silver smithing I never thought that I would sell the very first set I made!
