Hair Comb

This is it. If only to prove my continued existence to the miniscule bit of internet that is this blog, I'm going to challenge myself to weekly posts.

I'll start with a bit of back log...

This was my wire project from the intro to art jewelry class I took last spring, it involved a bit of forging and a lot of soldering. Which I wasn't very good at.. I kept re-melting bits on ascendent.

It's made out of nickel-silver cause I'm poor, and because as far as I can tell the metal doesn't bother me.




It's about 8 inches long, and designed to stick off the head a bit, which could make it a bit of an eye problem when worn by someone short. Something I failed to think about when making it.

Cuff Bracelet

My first project for my Jewelry class: a bronze cuff bracelet.
We were to make a piece by piercing and sawing, with one side brought to a high polish, and one with an intentional scratch surface.
