Semiprecious gemstone cabochons and bezel type settings made using silversmithing and silver solder techniques
Been a while since I have added a new entry.. All the action is on the forum !
Was finally fortunate enough to have a member from our local club come over and walk me through some basic silver soldering. She was a big help. Little things like working the torch properly, using the flux correctly, etc…
Any way, felt the urge to share the results of this Rainforest Jasper pendant. Still have a long ways to go before I can actually offer some up for sale, but getting there!

Right on, that looks great.
Like with anything worth learning, it take practice. You should see some of my first, lol.
Beautiful work, keep on making…

Well done indeed - a freeform bezel isn’t the easiest thing in the world to get right. Love the stone too, it’s gorgeous.
