Got a newly cast set of Lovers ring. Should I keep them bright and polished or oxidise them? And what stone. The same or different? Thinking they would work as a set for a couple.

Impractical ? Yes. Do I love it? Also yes. Woodland inspired witchy ring with two stones. Moonstone and Moss Agate.

We have a 8mm moonstone in one side. Thinking a moss agate in the other.

Currently scientists are studying neurodevelopmental disorders by injecting human tissue into rat brains. I was imagining this and thinking of how cranium rats begin as normal scurrying Norway brown rats, until they encounter psionic energy given off by eldritch powers; then they form hive-minds!

Test cast arrived. It's been oxidised and polished back (might need a tad more). Now I just need to decide on two stones. Working name " As above, so below". I love the idea of having two stone and just turning the ring round when you want a different vibe.

Really digging the craggy, raw feel of these mountainous rings, so I carved another. This time, it's reversed, polished shank and rough oxidised face, with a #garnet preform inclusion. #silverjewelry

Working on my wax carving. Goal was for the shank to feel carved from stone, high polish flat face, large semi rough gemstone. Was torn between my herkimer diamond & polyhedral preform garnet. Settled on the Herk for this one. Might have to do my answer to a Dwarven Ring of Power at some point. 🪨💎

Finally settling on an illustration that sums up the things that inspire me.

Also been thinking about textures and shapes that might work with a dodecahedral garnet I have.

Your daily horoscope: Today you will feel like a frog - cute, sometimes poisonous, and seeking a kiss to break the curse placed upon you.

No thoughts, brain smooth. Rabbit hole of indecisive scribbles. Not sure what's the right route, once I have worked that out then I can change fonts and lock ups to more considered options.

Do something nice for yourself every day, like taking a little nap, or searching forgotten tombs for the buried bones of ancient forest gods and crafting a cursed but very striking necklace.

Three WIPs for some branding. I'm still not sure about any of them. Being decisive is something I am working on.

Sketch, model, resin print to check, mold, cast, hand finish.

It is my first #PortfolioDay I'm a jewellery designer from the UK. I'm terrible at taking photos, but have some sketches vs model vs final pieces. As well as some sketch from my collection of Tarot inspired rings. 🗡🐍

I'm just working on my branding for my jewellery side hustle, but in the meantime, here are some examples of the sort of stuff I make.
