Metamorphosis

by Lynda Carson.
(Spring Valley, California USA)

In a recent metal’s class, we were given brass bullet casings and told to make a piece of jewelry. After many ideas were tried and discarded, this fibula is what I created, after drilling holes and etching the casing. My first brooche design as well.

Sad-looking first attempt at acid etching

It’s made of brass wire, picasso finish Czech beads, and quartzite crystal shard.
