With some room-to-move in the new space, I have begun pulling out boxes of work in progress and reviewing old pieces.
These 3 necklaces are from an old series called 'Indian Summer' I started several decades ago...
I go around in circles at times, spiraling into progress, and revisit often past designs to add, subtract and give them new life.

Spirit 1 Necklace (1990)
This one was the first one I made and it sold in a flash at Galerie Aurum in Frankfurt, Germany... From my notes at that time, it's sterling silver, copper, brass and tiny bits of tube beads as spacers in between, on an oxidized sterling silver chain.
Spirit 2 Necklace followed in 2011.
No brass this time, just sterling silver and copper hollow forms with various color finishes and patinas on a sterling silver bead chain. Part of the elements that can be freely arranged around the chain, is a copper tag with year, title of piece and signature.
Spirit 2 Necklace (2011)
Spirit 3 Necklace (2011)
Sprit 3 Necklace is the third of the series and last one. Copper and sterling, stained or heat patinas for this handful of simple elements on the sterling silver bead chain. The tag with piece information sticks out on the upper right corner..

Early this summer Donut + Bars Necklace finally met its human, a match meant to be.
Many had come around over the years, tempting this unique necklace and pulling this way and that, hoping it would want to go home with them.
But Donut + Bars was never quite sure and passed on everyone.
That is, until this summer, when C. came by... it was love at first sight!

That is, until this summer, when C. came by... it was love at first sight!
It was just 2 of them at the beginning, hollow forms and fabrications in sterling silver, copper and touches of 18k gold, on a long sterling silver chain, long enough to allow play and various combinations...
So now, Cone + Bars Necklace is lonely.
This one too passed on many a good offer and a lot of 'oohs and ahhs' from interesting prospects, but it is the first of the two and always been a bit stubborn.
I am for that special one, it says, wrapping around my fingers...

All my pins in one place!
Just added a new pin style to my ever popular twisted&wires collection: the Arc pin comes in 2 sizes, 3 metals and 5 different finishes. You can choose from the short or long style and suddenly you have a smile on you! And if you sometime want to show a less happy day than usual (sigh!)... well, you just turn the pin until things get better!
Here is how you could also wear the coil pin, a simple statement pin for a special occasion, or better, for an every day statement: on you hat!
Happy late summer!
