Spirals are a constant designs in my work and this piece is no exception. I found the pendant at a bead store in Washington, DC., while visiting family; and of course I had to have it! The pendant sat on my work bench for a long time before I came up with the idea to continue the spirals into the necklace. It took a few days of fabricating with steel and copper wires before deciding on the steel. I chose steel because when polished and waxed it takes on a warmer more organic feel, which was what I was after. Turquoise heshi beads were added for a pop of color. A simple hook clasp was created to finish the design.
