The Bird of Paradise

  « Nattywraps

(Wire Wrap Jewelry)

The Bird of Paradise This is probably the most complicated silversmith work I have done in a piece to date. I put a lot of thought and preplanning into how this was made.

Contains:
- Flush set, faceted ruby (Moguk valley, Burma)
- Pink sapphire crystal (Ratnapura, Sri Lanka)
- 5 gram tsavorite garnet crystal (Merelani hills, Tanzania)
- Chrome tourmaline (Nigeria)
- Spessartine garnet (Nigeria)
- Spinel (Burma)
- Blue sapphire crystal (Ratnapura, Sri Lanka)
- Bezel set, faceted paraiba tourmaline (Paraiba, Brazil)

note: the baby blue colored stuff at the bottom is essentially poster tack that I used to stand the piece up for this picture.
