I have several "Art" jewelry pieces that I am not currently listing for sale. I thought it would be nice to share them anyways. Art pieces are the most fun to create.

This piece is titled "Sea" Two rough cut panels of copper layered with several different colors of murano enamel, within each layer there are a few "chunk" pieces, giving an incredible depth to the piece. I really enjoyed making this piece, I even made a ready to wear pendant to match, it is listed here.

Some just don't need to finished- like the unicorn rug-hook project I found last time I was up there. Some just aren't ready to be finished, like a garnet necklace I am working on, I am sure is waiting for me to finish an enameled pendant for. Some are paused while I learn a new skill that I can add to the piece.
