I love mixed metal and I really love melting stuff These are silver on copper. Carnelian, opal and Laboradite They are really hard however to capture in a photo just how cool they are     |

Carnelian, opal and Laboradite They are really hard however to capture in a photo just how cool they are Can't give you a torch and some metal, wow nice work. Do you flux the piece when you flow the silver? Might be an option if you're not doing it. |

Ali, those are excellent! Is the silver you're flowing solder or sterling?

Your pendants look great! I love the textures and colors. Looks to me like you've created the start of an attractive jewelry line with a cohesive style.

The Carnelian has Argentinian and the others sterling I'm amazed you're getting the silver to flow without melting the rest of it. Are the bezels already soldered on when you do that?  |
