New Work - Copper Necklace

I have been busy on my quest to conquer copper... There are a few new test pieces in my pile that I should photograph, but my favourite piece is the necklace below which I can actually wear...

Inspired by antique iron scrollwork (have a look at my Flickr photos of the ironwork at the V&A museum) - it is a style I will continue to explore.

And another photo:

I'm working on the second necklace at the moment (that one's for you, Suzy :-) to work out a few kinks, but otherwise I'm pleased. The beads are purple Swarovski pearls.
