Sterling silver and Laboradite pendant -- Tuesday, 06 February 2007

I have been making pieces but i haven't had a chance to upload any of the pictures for what seems like an age.

This is my first serious attempt at soldering.  It is a sterling silver pendant with copper loops at the top for the chain, and a piece of copper also soldered on at the bottom.  The stone is Laboradite, and I used blackening solution inside the stone setting to make it flash darker.  I also used the same solution on the silver as I didn't want this piece to be really shiny.
