this will have to do.
2010 while being an important year for my education regarding noble metal working and what was at first very reluctant avenues into gemology, was not such a good year for glass. Temporarily insurmountable obstacles with equipment and tentative partnerships looking for strength in numbers that went belly up, had me stuttering and starting with glass in the end of 2009/first half of 2010. By the time I had overcome these obstacles alone, my fine jewellery apprenticeship had begun, with its 14 hour days and little time to be anywhere except the workshop.
All making this piece the more special. Barr some acid/burr engraved mirrors as gifts, this the only significant piece.
Allegorical and biographical, a strong language has emerged in the twelve months of thought and 100+ man hours in this piece, a three part door panel.
