This is a reticulated pendant made from silver. It was a funny exercise that I would like to do again some time.

Really love the shape of this one, my eyes are busy trying to climb through the screen and propose marriage.

Thanks for the compliments. :D I'll ask the pendant if it is single and ready for marriage. :lol:

Yes, reticulation is really fun (and the effect is interesting). This piece was actually a project given to me and my jewellery class to learn how to do reticulation. Basically the lecturer said "Here's how you do reticulation, "reticulate" some silver...and try to make a piece out of it."

Some people took it as just an exercise, but I had a moment of victory (very rare!) and was actually really happy that I attempted reticulating a dome! I was really proud of the results. :D
