On the workbench today: a pile of rings and an almost-as-big pile of silver dust. #goblinstuff

Just finished a hand-carved faceted ring cast in bronze with star-set amethysts. I made this using the lost wax method and traditional star setting. I love how the old techniques are still in use. If you need me, I'll be in the workshop making treasures. #Metalsmithing

I reworked an older piece: a hand-pierced sterling silver Unalome pendant, now set with a rose-cut peridot and finished with a dark patina. The Unalome symbolizes life’s winding path toward clarity. Do you revisit old work in your practice?
