Silver Woven Puff Heart Necklace

I do not own a hydraulic press so this puff heart was achieved using acrylic as the form. It’s a fun process and could be done with any material that you can cut or carve a shape into. The silver was put through a rolling mill first to impress the lovely texture. It was then formed and cut. Sterling wire was then shaped around the heart and they were woven together with more Sterling wire. Riveted bail holds the pendant to the chain and a tassel swings freely below the heart. Approximately 19 inches long. Sterling heart lobster claw secures it around your neck. By Lisa.
