Classic PIPA, Sterling Silver, Pendant

This is the first time I make something out from silver wires, and boy, I am all tensed. So I put down the silver wires and picked up stainless steel again - to do a final test to confirm the measurement, then moved on to silver wires the next day.

Stainless steel piece:


Sterling silver classic PIPA pendant:



I sat there for about 10minutes, couldn't cut the wires.


I want my mom to be the first who see it. She saw it just now. She is not much a detail person, so she only took a glance at it and said "I will surely keep this because you made this for me."

I did not oxidize this piece (I don't have LOS, and don't know how to, yet), so this photo doesn't do it's justice, the pendant looks 100 times better in real. :)

:) I bet even if I made her crap she would still love it.
