What to write about here? How about the process of silver jewelry fabrication? Making things from scratch with wire and sheet metal. I'm nearly done with the above pieces of jewelry - all they need now is to be dipped into an oxidation bath (which patinas everything), then prepolished with tripoli (to remove the oxidation from the higher areas), stones set into their bezels and then given a final high shine polish and a wax treatment to deter future oxidation. I'll keep you posted on what some of these steps look like in future entries.
