This set of boulder opal and included smokey quartz stones has been sitting on my work bench for years now. Always meant to go together in a pair of earrings, but I have never put the work in to get the actual design finalized. It is time. Think we have a plan.

Practicing other new jewelry smithing skills. Took a workshop back in October with in Florence, Italy, on flush setting faceted stones where the stones are inset into the metal and level with the surface. Very tricky because if you mess up drilling the seat the whole piece might need to get tossed into the scrap pile. But I have wanted to add this technique to my designs for a long time, so have lately screwed up my courage to become adept. Yesterday started small, after some practicing, and made these simple asymmetrical sterling post earrings with lab sapphires, 18k gold accents, and traditional Florentine etched striated texture (also learned at workshop).

What the heck are those?!! Suz’s afternoon snack, perhaps? No, earrings-to-be!! I am embarking on a new lost wax casting adventure into the Japanese technique called Mitsuro-Hikime. It involves using a mixture of beeswax and tree resin. After softening this mixture in the warmth of one’s hands, you can pull it like taffy, and beautiful striations appear in organic shapes that are limited only to one’s imagination. The twisted Cheeto/pasta/pretzel shapes you see here are destined to be cast into sterling silver within a couple weeks. Stay tuned to see their finished form!
