Ruby Heart





Been making a few of these hearts in the last few months for custom orders. This one in my opinion is the prettiest yet to date. It features a bezel set 8x7mm pink ruby that I set inside a pure silver flower.
The heart is shaped as I am melting the silver. A very tedious process. One has to work very quickly without melting everything out of shape. I like the rustic look without the patina. This one I sanded smooth, yet is still has some lovely intentional dents to keep it a unique, yet rustic look. A brightly polished finish really makes this heart stand out. 
I made another, smaller one with a red garnet. Pictures of that one will have to wait perhaps until tomorrow. I am having bread dough on the go again and I am not sure if I will have enough daylight to take more pictures. 

Hope you all had a happy sunday! I sure did!

And there were another two

Believe it or not, but I somehow managed to "squeeze" in another two necklaces today! 
One with a lovely blue lace agate that features a nice scalloped edge and a  leaf that I printed on my rolling mill.
The other one is a heart shaped pendant necklace that I embellished with different sized sterling silver balls and a cute little "flower".
I think I am going back in my studio for a while to start another project. Going to have to work at my day job for the next four days, so there won't be much time in between to make anything new.

Fall is not far off here in southern Norway. I can tell today, although the sun is in its full bloom, that there is a sense of crispness in the air. Looking forward to fall. My favorite time of the year!

Enjoy your day wherever you are!
