A series of photos showing shots of some of my sterling silver shamrock jewelry in progress.  I’m using the techniques of chasing and repoussé.  Please contact me if you are interested in ordering a piece of 4 or 3 leaf clover jewelry for yourself.

Trying something new (during insomnia) on Flickr.

I’m experimenting with setting stones in abstract themed chasing and repousse. I do this in the middle of the night when I have insomnia.
