into spring and looking ahead.
lots of work on the bench and the new slices collection is steadily growing.
the big squares have been selling out right from the beginning of the year and I recently added a slighter smaller size to satisfy the milder version of 'big'...

this week will be adding a new style to the line, here in preview...circles!

simple sequence of events in playing mode and so these new earrings came to life.

they go well together with the squares and make a perfect mis-match pair for a daring and stylish earring statement.
don't you think?

Since the beginning of the year these new earrings have been best sellers the minute I released them out to the world. many people have also been asking about a smaller version of these bold earrings, and so.... introducing below the slightly smaller version of the squares, still big enough for a decisive impact, but taking a bit of the 'big' edge off in a 1.75" square.

from the early feedback i am receiving it seems that these are the perfect choice for someone who wants to be brave and fearless at the same time, but in a just a smaller scale. as the bigger version, they come in black brass and in yellow brass.

a couple of weeks ago while looking for silver to melt, i found more treasures!
a few pieces of experimental work and 'studies' in sterling silver and 18K gold from way way back.

bit is one of 3 pendants i pulled out from that re-discovered pouch and refreshed by sliding it onto a simple black cotton cord, complete with 2 tube sliders to match for easy adjustment of length and pendant style.

and, going through my note books, also found  the scribble i wrote at that time, apparently documenting the process along with the frustrations...!
