Ring band is sterling with a 22k/sterling bimetal dome soldered to a dapped sterling circle and bezel set. Two sterling wires and one 14K wire are soldered inside a silver tube which is soldered to the dome. Three half drilled pearls are attached to the wires. The bezel edge was hand stamped with a fish eye punch.
He left one single flower on her car....and that was all she needed to know. The sterling silver dome was shaped in a dapping block and then hammered. The stem is made from sterling silver square wire and using a fine gauge wire, I wrapped Swarovski crystals around to add a pop of color.
A new toggle design from me. Hand sawn from 20 gauge copper sheet, soldered, dapped, heat patinated, and sealed with Renaissance Wax.
Olfert Dapper (1636-1689), a Flemish physician and intellectual person, knew perfectly the classical Greek and Latin literature. He was born in Amsterdam and completed his education in Utrecht. Although she never travels in her life, she gives herself to geography studies, so she always bases her knowledge on a wide area in her works. Thanks to his regular and centrist working style, he manages his research team in an exemplary way and publishes history and geography studies about China, Asia, Africa, America, Amsterdam and eastern Mediterranean islands. These books are decorated with high aesthetic standard maps and engravings.
The publication used mostly ancient Greek and Latin literature authors such as Herodotos, Pausanias, Plutarch, Ptolemy, Strabon, Aged Plinius, Apollonios, Hesychios, Pomponius Mela, Solinus, Stephanus Byzantius, John Hrisostomos. Apart from these, portolan (harbor) maps and island maps called isolario (Cr. Buondelmonti, B. Bordone, T. Porcacchi, M. Boschini, VM Coronelli) testify to contemporary travelers (P. Belon, G. Sandys, Sieur Du Loir, J Uses Spon and G. Wheler etc.), accurate maps of his time (J. & C. Blaeu etc.) and information from Dutch traders. Unlike Dapper's other work, "Archipel", this work is not translated into other languages; as a matter of fact, it is understood that the book was published only to praise the magnificent victories won by the Venetians during the Ottoman-Venetian war (1685-1688). Many of the striking engravings are inspired by the work of VM Coronelli. This work created a useful handbook and advisory text for future travelers.

Hand-cut, dapped, and textured bronze, copper, with brass sprout in center; the copper dome spins to reveal designs beneath on the bronze piece.
Playing with some tools I bought but haven't put to much use yet: dapping block, disk cutter, and 1/8" letters from beaddestash on Etsy and 1/16" letters from Volcano Arts.
Archive hunting.
Edit: ta for Kath for reminding me that this was Dappled Cities not The Panics o=)

This series of resin pendants were inspired by a sheet of reproductions of vintage matchbook cover art. I thought it would be really cute to pair the matchbooks with actual matches and embed them into resin
They are made from brass with Ice Resin and various found objects, brass components, bits of paper, match sticks, and glass beads. The resin is crystal clear, and very reflective, and amplifies the collage inside the brass pendant with amazing detail. Unfortunately, they are so reflective, they are a bit hard for me to photograph, but I love each one dearly!
This pendant was made from a raw brass frame pendant, which was heated with flame to give it interesting coloration. Some of the pendants in this series were also hand domed with a hammer and dapping block. The pendant was then carefully filled with the paper and found object bits and covered with a water-like layer of crystal clear resin.

The disk goes into the homebrew hydraulic press. The dap tool is made out of an old ball bearing. A wood dapping block and tools will work just as well for simple domed shapes.

The Shipbuilding series of pendants are inspired by a song of the same name, made as part if my Song Lore blog series.
They are made from brass with Ice Resin and various found objects, brass components, bits of paper from an old nautical themed card, freshwater pearls, and glass beads. The resin is crystal clear, and very reflective, and amplifies the collage inside the brass pendant with amazing detail. Unfortunately, they are so reflective, they are a bit hard for me to photograph, but I love each one dearly!
