Pencil sketch and final silver pendant
Pendant concept sketch
Reticulated silver and polished sphere pendant

Been messing with a cool combo of polished sphere and reticulated organic element. It wants to be a series dealing with the theme of inner reflection and outward appearance. This is the first in the series that has found a finish line. Short on supplies with a couple more classes to give before my next shipment, I had to settle for finishing it in sketch form with the promise of real completion once the silver arrives.

But I am pleased with what emerged today. The part that is missing is the collar that weaves through the pendant. When you look into the ball you see your reflection, and when you look at the back you get the surprise of a hidden design which shows your reflection upside down.
