Rings

    

   Silver plated rings made out of  butter knifes. A series of 10 butter knifes rings that came out of the atelier this week. Not only butter knifes are used in the making of the cutlery rings. Up to today I used tea spoons , forks and butter knifes. Going around on flea market to find those cutlery you can get surprised. . . Mostly those cutlery are silver plated brass, but you can get alpaca, silver, stainless steel and other alloys ... So a wide range of materials that should be recognised at a glance. Not always easy, but by time you get used to it and generally you get right. I choose the silver plated brass and silver when I can offer it. 

Bracelets suite, 4 new pieces.

   New bracelets 3 out of 4 . A series  only made out of sewing machine parts, as well for the steel and the screws. The size a quite large this time. There will be presented in a few weeks in the show window at Marianne Gray http://mariannegray.com/ 

     This last one, made in 3 parts has brass rivets and a brass screw to lock it . The steel come from    

     sewing machines and a brass screw from an old alarm clock .
