Green Jewellery and Objects Symposium - Friday 13 November 2009

"Many aspects of our lives are being reviewed and adjusted in the light of raised environmental and cultural awareness, but where and how do you start to rethink your practice" - the blurb asks.

Cook & Co: Antiquities for the Future - Octavia Cook

Opening Night: 4 December 2009 6-8pm

With this brooch/pendant, the wax to cast silver and then oxidisation and pin back - I scanned the piece before the buttons were set in place (just cause I could), so much of the beauty is hidden, I believe. Barbara on the other hand only wants the final piece to be shown.
