I must have been
in a geometrical state of mind when I made this pendant. I started with reticulating the silver
triangle and then added the silver wire to echo the shape of the triangle. I made the dichroic glass cabochon last
summer in a workshop and it seemed to work on this pendant. Finally, I finished the pendant off with a
domed circle at the top to hide the bail.
I’ve been using
reticulation – melting the surface of the silver enough so that it starts to
ripple like water but not so much that it melts completely - a lot at the
moment. I like to include texture in my
work and this is a great way to do that in silver.
