Thank you very much! I drew them in Procreate and engraved the interior details with a laser, then sawed them out with a 6/0 blade. I’m working on a pair of layered brooches, and these aren’t the designs I ended up going with, but I liked how they turned out enough to do them in brass for fun.
Oh wow! Thanks for the explanation, really stunning and clean detailed work 🥰 If you ever sell this design as earrings or a necklace I'll be first in line!
I drew them in Procreate and laser engraved all the interior details on 22 gauge red brass, then used a jeweler's saw with a 6/0 blade to saw them out and gave them a patina with hydrochloric acid to darken the engraved details.
I'm sort of toying with the possibility of opening a small shop later this year if people are interested in that, but I don't know that I'd sell just flat cutouts like this; these were really just for fun and practice.
I'm surprised and really flattered that people are asking about this, but these guys were really just for fun. I've been waffling on maybe opening a shop or a Ko-Fi or something, but I think it would be more for finished, wearable pieces.
