Into the Depth III
$470.00Earrings of Eastern repousse patterned mokume gane with French tools
sterling silver, fine silver, copper, shibuichi, carnelianThese earrings are very lightweight! To create their unusual surface design, I blended the ancient technique of Eastern repoussé with the Japanese technique of mokume gane. I did all of the free-hand hammering with unpatterned mokume gane, a fused sheet made from layers of sterling, copper, and shibuichi. Once I had finished the Eastern repoussé, I ground the surface hammer marks to expose the resulting cross section of the different metals. The richness of the patina adds to the glow of the carnelian cabochons.

$4,460.00Eastern repousse pendant from dimensionally patterned mokume gane, double weave Roman chain
Sterling, copper, shibuichi, 22k gold, fine silver, Koroit opal; 2 x 1-1/2 x 3/8 in, 18 in chainI created the pendant by combining the techniques of Eastern repoussé and mokume gane, which is a sheet comprised of layers of different metals. When I’ve completed all the free-hand hammering of the shapes (there’s no mold!) then I grind off the surface hammer marks to reveal the cross section off all those displaced layers. It’s really my interpretation of ancient Egypt meeting the Edo period in Japan. The natural patterning of the Koroit opal cut into a 3-sided pyramid and set in 22k gold reflects the significant cultural technologies of past eras. The chain is a 1-Directional Double Weave, an ancient pattern of Roman chain, which creates a square herringbone pattern.
