Swinging copper disc earrings
Swinging copper discs in progress
Prototyping a new pair of earrings – swirly hardware and a lightly dished bright copper disc with a hammered texture. I’m delighted with how elegant, shimmery and eye-catching these turned out. I also feel my soldering has improved a great deal – not to mention that it’s great to have a second torch when you’re working on something just a little to big for one to handle alone. Unfortunately my camera’s away for repairs, so here are some dodgy phone pictures.
Prototyping barnacles in copper
Test piece for a commission – using plaster of paris to hold intricate structures together for soldering, and making a twist-brooch for the first time. I think it would look better with two more barnacles of different sizes.

Contact me if you’re interested in commissioning a similar personalised pendant.
Dinobelly etched copper pendant
The lovely lady herself supplied the sartorially-enhanced pipe-smoking T-Rex, and I complimented it with a solid but romantic Stegosaurus.
Etched copper blade earrings
Bold etched and hammer-textured copper blades which dangle and swing from sterling silver wires. The naked copper will weather and darken with wear – I get tonnes of compliments for mine. On Etsy.
The design of branches and leaves is etched into the surface – see our video for how!.
