Wedding Commission
Whilst working on new designs and stocking up for the season, I thought I’d share a wedding commission I worked on last year. I have been training with a silversmith for a while now and this has given me hugely increased confidence in trying new things and I have also learnt to set stones amongst lots of other things. It’s amazing what a bit of hand-on teaching can do for your skill set!
Anyway, I was asked to do 4 bridesmaids neckaces and earrings for a lovely lady I have previously done commissions for. She described the girls’ personalities and styles to me and I came up with 4 different designs to suit them. The common theme was the use of Brazilian Amethyst to match the gorgeous dresses they were wearing. I also made simple gemstone studs to match.
Here are 3 of the 4 necklaces I made, unfortunately I failed to photograph the fourth necklace before I sent it to the bride!
