Layers of transparent and white enamels have melted into yummy speckled pale pink coating. The cloud is enameled on both sides to distribute the tension of glass and metal evenly and prevent cracking or warping. The backside is black.
The cloud measures 4x2 cm (about 1 5/8 x 7/8 inches).
The chain measures 46 cm (18 inches).
The overall impression is delicate and feminine.
Made to order. Usually it takes one or two days until I can ship it.
I remember one summer morning when when I was a little late for work. Warm summer rain was washing the paved streets and I almost run into a street musician who was hiding in a doorway playing his trumpet. The sound of Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head echoed the half empty streets and seemed to fill the whole city. A perfect moment - the sound of rain and music, the people hiding from the rain, the warm humid air... This necklace was inspired by that moment. Light and simple.

Enameling is fusing powdered glass to metal at high temperatures. Torch firing allows me to have more control over the process and to observe how the powder softens, flows, and then hardens to a smooth, durable vitreous coating.
My studio is located in a small picturesque town not far from Riga, the capital of Latvia (European Union).
