Hand painted and hand crafted Aluminium/sterling silver layered pendant.
This pendant is made with hand dyed/painted aluminium and sterling silver chain. Each layer of this pendant has been hand painted, printed and dyed. The larger lower disc is orange, the middle layer is denim blue and the top layer is orange with an engraved botanical design. The width of the lower larger disc is approximately 2.5 cm.
Supplied on a 16" sterling silver snake chain.
My designs are created from panels of hand dyed, painted and printed aluminium. I then select areas from panels and put them together to create colourful jewellery. No 2 pieces are exactly the same due to print placements and dye effects being random.
All my aluminium jewellery is inspired by one thing, my love of colour! I love to find ways of introducing colour into my work especially hand dyed methods. Each sheet of aluminium I print and dye is unique due to the process. Elements of each dyed panel are then selected and incorporated into my designs.
This is part of my new 'water colour' inspired collection. Panels of aluminium are hand painted with a combination of colours. Colours combine and bleed into each other creating a water colour effect. Each panel created is a one off due to this process and then I select areas to use in my jewellery. All pieces are hand crafted in my Cheshire workshop.
