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 in a rainbow of shades. The larger lower disc is a teal and purple. The middle layer is lime and the top layer is electric blue with a hint of purple. The width of the lower larger disc is approximately 2.5 cm.
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.
