Picta Fenestram

I just finished a new commissioned necklace. I do not have a whole lot to say about it, but I am very happy with how it turned out.

The design is a bit of a cross in-between a few necklaces I made in December of 2010.

I decided to construct this necklace out of solid wire instead of hollow tubing as I have done a few times in the past. It can some times be desirable to build a chain out of tubing, but I am hoping to start making more solid chains as they are more durable; and since there is no solder seam along the length of the wire, I find it to be more attractive.

I also got some fancy new jewellery boxes made recently. It is pretty cool, but also a little strange to have boxes with my name and logo on them; I suppose it is just a surreal sort of feeling.

That's all I have to share for now, but I will be back again soon with more.

Until next time.
Peace and Love
