challenge #4-riveted
This was a hit with me...had alot of fun with this one. I have a new tiny riveting hammer and it certainly makes a difference. I was using a big "sucker" from home depot.
Assembled the copper chain, cut and domed the circle, forged the silver, cut and textured the copper square and riveted it to the back copper shape and through the silver. The pendant is non moving. Added the wire bail with a "flourish" to break up the formal design. Simple but slightly complex.
One of my goals this year was to create more complex pieces...this doesn't seem complex, but there were several design elements and lots of different finishing aspects, so I consider this piece to be moving toward my personal goal.
