HAND SELECTING MY VERY OWN TURQUOISE GEM STONE I LANDED A UNIQUE PIECE WITH GOLD VEIN RUNNING THROUGH IT, LOVE LOVE!
THIS GUY WAS TOTALLY ROCKING HIS LOOK. HEAVY BEJEWELED RINGS, AUTHENTIC FINGER PAINTED BINDI.
SO INDIA CHIC.
FLAME THROWING IS A CONSTANT WHEN MAKING SILVER. SOLDIERING, HEATING, MOULDING.. FUN WITH FIRE!
TOOLS OF THE TRADE
POLISHING OFF THE SILVER, FINALLY STARTING TO SEE IT COME TO LIFE !
THE RESULT: MY VERY OWN HAND CRAFTED 925 SILVER TURQUOISE RING.
8 HOURS, A FEW LEG CRAMPS, MINOR CABIN FEVER AND 1200 RUPEES LATER I HAVE A STATEMENT PIECE DESIGNED AND CREATED BY YOURS TRULY!
THE PROCESS WAS RELATIVELY SIMPLE BUT TIME CONSUMING. I CAN NOW FULLY APPRECIATE THE WORK THAT GOES INTO EACH PIECE OF JEWELLERY.
A COMMON TRADE FOR MANY LOCALS BUT A MAJOR LIFE ACCOMPLISHMENT FOR ME!
