Dream Catcher


This pendant is a large turquoise nugget wrapped in copper coils and woven wire with an antique finish. The turquoise has an array of colors and tones ranging from black inclusions and traditional turquoise blue to very pale blue. The antiqued copper surrounding the stone compliments it with an almost blue tint deep in the coils. Coils intricately wrap around the stone completely enclosing the pendant leaving it at 1 3/4" tall by 1" wide.

This necklace is my first real chain maille work that is all chain maille. Everything in the construction of this necklace is sterling silver. The weave has a lacy floral style that I worked to mimic and keep in the initials by using the swirls and curls while avoiding many straight lines. The letters are 7/8" x 7/8".
