 1 Comparison of Slash Marks ~ belle*dame This is the comparison of some of the slash marks shown here, done by belle*dame.
"The Two Sisters brooch has 3 equal length, parallel; line groups, random placement, little space between groups, little overlapping.
The Crown Jewelry has mainly 4 equal length, parallel line groups, random, a lot of space between some, others overlap.
The John Hardy has short and long parallel line groups, varying sizes of groups (2-line, 3-line, 4-line) and line groups tend to be perpendicular (not random)."
Thank you Belle.
