How this jewellery was made ↓
Hand made using traditional methods. The circles were formed from sterling silver wire and soldered, filed, sanded and hammered. The stone setting was created by fitting a very thin strip of fine silver bezel around the stone and making a circle that was then soldered to a sheet of sterling silver along with the hammered silver circles. The pendant was then cut, filed and sanded. The bail was formed from a piece of silver and soldered to the top of the pendant. The piece was placed in a warm pickling solution to remove the fire scale caused by the blow torch, followed by cleaning and lots of polishing to give the pendant its lovely sheen. The stone was placed in the setting and the bezel shaped over the stone and burnished.
