I've overlapped two pieces of reticulated silver and added varying sizes of silver balls along the seam. It's simple and striking.
Here are the two side views. I really like how the edges curl and soften the profile and also the piece is a little more simple than others.
Next up is a full reticulated bangle. I love the way the appliqued swirl continues around the entire piece. Check it out from all sides.
There's no top or bottom--you can wear it either way--and the beauty of the embellishments in the round allows for interest while it rolls around your wrist.
This is the last cuff I finished this week and it may be my favorite:
It's 20g reticulated silver with balls and wires soldered on. In its earlier state, I was only going to have one 5mm cabochon on it. But as I was finishing the piece, it seemed to need a little more. So I added two additional bezel cups--one 3mm and one 4mm. I set a green tourmaline in both the 3mm and 5mm bezels and a peridot in the 4mm bezel.
I'm really pleased with the assymetrical quality of the design and feel I made the right choice by adding the additional stones. What do you think?
I think they are beautiful, nice work.
