Bracelets suite.

        The collection is increasing. This 11 new pieces are all forged out of steel 

      all fitted with a screw coming from a sewing machine . About the screws, I want to say a special     

     thank to  Georges form Bernina in Brussels which kindly provide me with those screw whitch are  

     not made any more. So once more there is recycling and upcycling in the process . 

Stand for bracelets.

Forged stands for bracelets . 

Forge & Silver Smithing

 The silver smithing 

workshop.

 It is now more than 6 month that we are sharing the space of the forge with " Steph. ".    
  He need a space to put his jewelry workshop and we wanted to start soldering again . . . So we are sharing space and tools . this gave birth to a jewelry work shop next to the forge. It was fun to solder silver again, use all those small specific tools to jewelry . After all those years I did not forget what I was taught in Camberwel and come up with different pieces, mainly rings and pendants.
  Here on the right is a silver frame made for a antic pure silver coin from Japan. It took me some time but I did not want to damage the old coin and made this 925 silver frame for it .
 many other pieces have been made but I do not always take a picture . . .

           Under is a ring made from the tooth of a fork with a gearing from and old petrol lamp.
