Retailer Tree & Songbirds with Full moon - Sterling silver

Tree & Songbirds with Full moon - Sterling silver

Two little songbirds sitting in a big Tree of Life under the full moon. Each little bird, star, and tree part is hand cut with a jeweler's saw.
First I pre-drill the holes and then retailer thread my jeweler's saw thru and then I can start sawing the designs. The tree is a great symbol and when making this necklace I thougt two songbirds would be perfect, under a full moon lit sky. The entire rectangle is hammered first with my planishing hammer or a round tipped hammer. Some of the stars I texture into place.c
It is a big sterling piece which can hang from any chain.

Material: sterling silver, moonstone 5mm cabachon
Size: 1 1/2" x 1" (soldered link)
