ARTifact Resin Collection 1

From GardanneBeads

This is new addition to my shop I am calling them ARTifacts. These jewelry components can have a brass or copper base to which I apply lead free solder using a "soft solder" technique. I can then further decorate these bases with brass stampings, wire, old jewelry components, bezels, just about anything that will adhere to the soft solder. I then apply layers of patina and finish the pieces so the interesting textures are highlighted. This patina is then sealed to preserve the finish.

This piece is 28mm square with a 26mm round bezel in the center. I have used jewelry grade resin to seal and magnify the image in the bezel. This particular piece has a 2mm hole in each corner, which creates multiple possibilities for it use in your jewelry creations.
This particular piece has been sealed with renaissance wax, and both sides are shown in the photos.
