This sparkly diamond shaped pendant might look like a crystal from a distance, but it has actually been created using an ancient wire-weaving technique. When the 14K yellow and rose gold fill woven metal fabric is embedded behind the glass, the reflection of light helps to create a shimmer that is reminiscent of a faceted gemstone. The raindrop bubbles are made of fused glass, helping to refract light even more, creating a shimmery golden finish that is absolutely irresistible.
A wonderful complement to any outfit or occasion, this necklace is set to be your new favorite item, made to bring style and sophistication to your daily wardrobe.
• Size: Pendant measures (from the top of the bail) 7/8 of an inch long and 5/8 inch wide.
• Weight: This pendant is also lightweight and comfortable for all day wear, weighing in at .08 of an ounce – exactly the weight of a dime (.08 oz).
Woven Metal and Glass Video
I have pioneered a new technique which creates the woven metal under glass effect. Using a medieval finger weaving technique, I weave strips from thin metal wire. I then take that woven metal fabric and embed it behind glass. The different shapes of glass either magnify or distort the underlying weave creating many interesting visual effects. In order to take these visual effects even further, I then fuse layers of glass in my kiln and put the woven metal fabric behind that.
But my favorite part is how the bends and the twists of the woven metal fabric interact with the light that is focused by the glass. The intense sparkly nature of these pieces rivals the sparkle in a well cut diamond!
Here is a brief video of me weaving the woven metal fabric:
