My inspiration behind this piece is the beauty of home. We all have those certain memories of being home. For me it is the magnificent mountains, the elegant stars, and the calming ocean. To make this pendent I used two pieces of sterling silver and I cut out my design. Then used liver of sulfer to darken the background and make the waves stand out. I then soldered them together and polished it to make it really pop.
