laurieopal: opal (Default)

I'm polishing pendants tonight including one with a kuroit opal that has an internal design of black lines in the stone. The design setting is dark silver with 2 rubies that pick up red flashes in the opal.

I'm also putting chains on my octopus, dragons, lacework etc.  I'm starting to run out of energy for the night but I wanted to post here. and I have one more design I need to do some hand touches of polishing. I've developed some personal techniques for last touches on work.

Pendant is a jelly fish with an amber body and yellow sapphire and rosin pieces on the tentacles. The rosins were used in a botanical experiment, therefore the numbers etc behind the pieces. They added a surreal touch I really like.




It's about 3' high in sterling. From the collection of Bayla Fine
