These are silver earrings with rolled paper texture that I developed for my MA at Stellenbosch. They are displayed on top of embossed and patinated fine silver plates...
The necklace is made from largish white seedbeads, as used by the local Zulu ladies, with silver jump rings on the tips. The stitch is the 'euphorbia' stitch and is a traditional Zulu stitch. I'm not sure that is the traditional Zulu name though...
The dragonfly brooch/earring is made from silver wire and has developed a golden patina from years of hanging on my office wall. I made a range of titanium dragonflies for my master's... must show some of them..
