Wrapped Wire Necklaces
Tuesday, November 4th, 2008I have been playing around with some wrapped wire forms. If any of these look like some of Lydia’s work, that’s because she taught me the technique. Her pieces remind me of flowers, seed pods, and other organic shapes. Mine are based on sea creatures, mostly jellyfish and squid. (sea creatures along with wings seem to keep popping up in my work, im not sure why). I have sold a couple of necklaces and people seem to really respond to these so I think I will continue making them. Some of them will be for sale in our online store whenever I get it working. Here is a sample:
I made this first one for Lydia. The inside is silver which has been cast in a mold carved from a Cuttle fish bone. The bell is wrapped silver wire.
