how it looks

Flying is one of our primal urge. Observing the world from above, keeping the overview about live. To be prevented  from nothing except the wind – that´s flying. Experiencing true ease from inside and outside
This pendant is (like all my jewellery) one-of-a-kind. Also the process of manufacture is unique.
The motif is drawn on a thin silverplate (0.8-1.00 mm thickness), then chased and hallmarked until the motif reaches a natural depth. Further details are then etched with files and needles. Sometimes gold plates or gold wire (750 content of gold) are soldered onto the plates to give it a more colorful appearance.
The real Amethyst and Carnelian are placed in hammered settings, which hold the gemstones safely and securely.
The chain is lead through a sturdy glider, which is connected to the pendant with a 1,2mm thick wire, preventing wear out for a long time.
