anglo plat prototypes
I started off by linking these curvy forged elements and see what pattern it creates.This long chain could be a layered bracelet or a necklace or both.
the only problem was, they were to flat,if i use them i have to forge them in a way that it looks 3 dimensional.I began using thin wire in various strands and tried twisting them around and linking them into each other and amazing things started happening.
I want to incorporate black sari fabric so that the platinum stands out.I want the fabric to be draped and pleated to represent a sari.The elements represent a paisley and the balls knotted with red string symbolizes the protection of Hindu goddess Lakshmi.
