Octo Eye


I made this octopus inspired necklace last semester for my Jewelry 2 class. The main piece is a hollow-form octopus eye and I made suckers to go on the hand made chain (yes, I made every one of those dang jump rings). Lastly, I created a tentacle toggle out of wax and had it cast in bronze. I sponged on enamel paint in turquoise and purple over a black patina to get the color. This necklace made it into my school's Spring Show and is now on display at one of the main campus buildings.
