In this class we will explore more ways to construct a 3D piece of jewelry. This piece is held together by a center post. Each piece is center drilled and soldered to the post in layers. This assures good alignment-no shifting layers while soldering, allowing for clean solder joins only where needed. Start with the idea of my blossom pendant, but make it your own if you wish. Change the petals, make petals on each layer, texture it, do a satin finish- the variations are endless. The idea here is to learn the techniques as well as take an existing idea and put your own spin on it.
Supplies: Bring sketches/ ideas if you would like to do variations on the design. The piece pictured is about 5/8″ Wide. Materials fee includes enough silver to make a 3 layer piece up to 1″.(Chain not included)
