20 gauge brass anticlast bracelet with a By Pass design. To me it has a very Arts and Crafts feel to it.
| 
44
This started as a flat piece of brass 7" by 1 1/2" wide that I drew a design on, annealed, quenched in pickle, sawed out, and sanded.
|
45
I used a cross peen hammer to mark a design on the down side, and then annealled it again, because the marking work hardened it.
| 
46
I then used a nylon hammer and fammered it down into a curved out channel in a piece of wood until it started to round the inside and stretch the outside.
| 
47
After annealling it a few more times, I held the two ends with my one hand and hammered with the other making sure that the inside was staying round and free of ridges. I burnished the inside of the top gave it a final sanding with 4000 grit paper, buffed and polished it.
"You are amazing Dinah!"

3 strand glass pearl necklace with wired focal plack. I cut out a 1 1/2" square out of brass, drilled holes for the strands and for the wiring of the beads. I then sawed out a matching back, with tabs. After I finished the wiring on of Czech beads, vintage beads, real pearls, leaves, garnets, and Swarovski Margaritas, and black diamond beads, I placed the back over it and clamped down the tabs to cover the wiring. Length of necklace is 24" 25", 26" and the focal part measures 2" by 2 3/4".
