Mokume Gane wrapped in Sterling
This is a pretty pendant that I made with polymer clay using a mokume gane technique. Layers of clay are imprinted and manipulated and then slices are taken to get these great designs in the clay. After curing the clay, much sanding, and a resin coating, I then made a sterling silver frame and wrapped the clay piece with finer sterling silver wire. I accented the clay piece with gun metal grey hematite stones. I like the shape and colors of this piece and I think the piece is rather unique. The next decision is whether to oxidize the silver, but, I like the way it looks now. So I might leave it alone. I still need to create the necklace yet.
