I haven´t been able to post as much as I would like and I apologize for the lack of new posts.
Fortunately the past few weeks have been quite productive. I have been busy making a lot of new pieces and I have also received a few commissions so even more new things will be on the way soon.

This piece was a bit of an experiment and it went quite well.

The only disappointment was when the stone cracked!

Fortunately this piece is easy to appreciate and if anything, the crack gives it a little extra character.

Having the piece be "reversable" is also a very interesting feature.
I hope you enjoyed the new necklace. For now I will be busy writing a few more posts. I have a lot to share and a lot more to make. . .
Until next time.
Peace and Love
