A commission to make an initial necklace with set gemstone for a 21st birthday present
I added my signature leaf to the back
Ah the planning stages... after lots of ideas this was getting started on the agreed design
Sawing the 'T' and 'C' from the silver sheet
Soldering the letters together with the overlaps in the right position
Adding the piece of chenier to the back for the chain to slide through
Choosing the stone- some gorgeous rubies, pink sapphires and I love that peach tourmaline. (
Although it's hard to tell with the crazy background at the gem merchant!)
And phew, the back is pretty neat even after the blue topaz has been set!
