So after a lengthy interruption to services here, I´m back. This piece here is up for grabs! I´m thinking 1000 in local currency, though I will happily and gratefully consider any serious offers.
This perfume bottle necklace is absolutely unique. Starting at the bottom the blown glass bottle has a side swing open top and a diamond tipped widget for annoiting oneself with ones favourite perfume or essence. I hope you like my half decent attempt at the latticino technique. Oh and it´s detachable.
Moving up each big silver hoop is hollow. I had previously worked this piece all in solid silver, but scrapped that feeling the weight had to come down. And the weight did come down, some 70%! Though there is still over 85 grams of silver here all in all.
Each bead is also hollow, formed on the mandrel. An exciting process, the last blast of heat on the previously untouched mandrel centre is where the magical puff of air (in this case Al2O gas) comes from. These beads I started well over a year ago imaging what the film Avatar would be like and I am glad I finished them before seeing the film! They are worth zooming in on but must be held and seen in person to fully appreciate their uniqueness, every one different, ranging from cool aquamarine transparents to redux metalised copper.
This is all connected to a solid silver chain and a very trustworthy loop and t-bar clasp, all handmade by me of course.
Oh and check out the t-junction bead, rock and roll baby!So one lucky owner, who is it to be?
