Silver Jewellery & Exhibition

It's been a while since I've posted anything, but I've been playing around with silver casting and the results are just beautiful. A wax model is 3D printed from my design, which is then cast in sterling silver and polished by hand. 

I've also been playing around with finishes, polishing to a high gloss, buffing to a satin finish, and detailing with liver of sulfur which darkens silver to a subtle rainbow of Amber, blue, green and black. 

The silver pieces aren't available for purchase on the website yet, as I am taking them all down to Melbourne for an exhibition at the Brunswick St Gallery in Fitzroy. Here's a link to the Facebook event page https://www.facebook.com/events/770853992960304/

Opening night is Friday 31st October and it will be running for 2 weeks.
