Artist's Comments

Made from silver and copper mokume gane, flame pattern cut with a jeweler's saw. Chain is mokume gane as well (unfortunately hard to see in the picture) made from hand-drawn wire.

Thanks! :-)

Mokume Gane is a type of metal laminating, i.e. making one sheet/rod/piece of metal with layers of multiple different metals in it.

Hehe, hours and hours of work. I started out with a 3/8" thick mokume gane rod, used a jeweler's saw to quarter it lengthwise and then used a draw plate to make wire out of the sections. :-)
