Description

The jewellery techniques introduced include the basics of wirework and soldering, but go beyond the typical jewellery book to include mixed-media applications such as sewing, plaster work and the altering of found objects.Pieces include brooches, pendants, necklaces, earrings, bracelets and belts. In making their own inspired pieces, the reader will be introduced to the possibilities of bringing small objects, whether from nature, one's travels or the comfort of home, into their wearable pieces.A simple, organic approach will provide the reader with not only practical jewellery-making techniques, but a thought-provoking, visual experience as well.
