I Forge Iron

leafy pendant for christmas


Recommended Posts

Hi!


I forged a small leafy kind of pendant for my girlfriend. We're together for 4 years now, I hope she likes it...I myself almost never like what I made :lol:

I would have liked to make some veins and so on but I had no idea how. I tried some chisels but it looked way too artificial and square edged. So I had to settle for just trying to give some flow and texture with my ball peen and some small tweezers. The gem is a small Perdidot/Olivin I bought and set into a small socket that I had drilled with an engraving tool. She likes green and nature, so I hope it is a fitting combination.

Until now I have forged knives most of the time, doing other things is still very hard for me. Need more training :P

Anyway, here are two pictures.
