Kokopelli Bracelet

Hello Friends

I just finished this one, WOOO HOOO! The Kokopellie is made from PMC3, The background is Boro glass and the Cuff Bracelet is handcrafted sterling silver. When the glass was still molten I pressed the Kokopelli into it. So it’s not really an inlay but he doesn’t just set on the surface.



Thanks For Letting Me Share

What a nice piece. I like the way you've highlighted the figure and also used it to 'set' the glass. And the glass has a lovely 'landscape'. Very well thought out!

Re: Kokopelli Bracelet

You have got to show this over in the wearables forum in our daily show and tell thread. This is a beautiful piece. How large is it?

Re: Kokopelli Bracelet

Thank You all so much!
The part where the glass is is about 1 1/2 inches across and well, of course 1 1/2 inches tall.

Diane it's nice to see that others see what you are working at creating, like the landscape in the glass.

Thanks Snoball and Robert I've never seen anything like this either, it just came about, like things sometimes do.

Sassybird I haven't been over to the wearables forum yet but I'm on my way now.

Kare, this is beautiful. I see the landscape, too.

Nice work,
