Goddess Pendants


Here are a couple of copper pendants I made in the jewelry making class I am currently taking at my local community college. Once the class is over I am going to add additional bits to the smaller pendant.
I am not sure if I will continue the Goddess theme throughout the rest of the class or not but I am quite pleased with my projects so far.
This class has been WAY out of my comfort zone. I prefer to go to class, learn techniques and tools and then take them back to my studio to create. This class I have to create the finished pieces in class. I am getting used to it but I think I still prefer to create in the comfort of my studio.
The large pendant is set with a rainbow moonstone and is very shiny. The red you see is actually reflected from the other pendant.
The pictures are not my best, taking pictures of shiny copper is difficult!

  1. lovely. And what a neat class to take. :) I hear you about feeling comfortable in your own space. I think our atmosphere greatly impacts our ability to create.

  2. That's awesome! I wish I had the time to take a course like that. I like Moonstones but I LOVE spirals! So, I prefer the Goddess pendant with the spiral. Would you consider making a copper spiral pendant?
