Before and after wirework courtesy of David Ebbinghouse. I welcome your thoughts and recommendations.

After the silver oxidizes I will be even more pleased. Meanwhile, I would like an artist to intermittently add black "gunk" around the silver; so that the wire looks slightly more embedded. Do you know of another fine craftsperson who may be willing to do this for me?

Antique Berber coral. Sourced in the medina quarter of Marrakesh, Morocco. One and one half inch in height. One inch wide. Or 38mm x 25mm.
