Hand Sawn Pierced Pedants, Earrings, & Bracelets






















I took a metalsmithing class in June and learned some techniques I had been dying to try. While there is still so much out there I want to learn, I have had so much fun working on new jewelry items.

My favorite has been sawing with my little hand-held jeweler's saw. The tiny sawblades used amaze everyone; you would not believe how something so thin and delicate could cut through heavy gauge metals!
