Dichroic Glass Pendant with Etched Star and Fine Sterling Silver Bail


Here is a picture of one of the glass experiment I discussed in the previous post. Here's a brief recap....

I used etching cream to etch the star design on the dichroic glass. I then made a glass sandwich with black glass, dichroic and clear glass. I inserted fine sterling silver (99.9% silver) bezel wire that I shaped into a bail.

The pendant is ~1.5 inches wide and ~2 1/4 inches long (includes bail).

The dichroic glass for this piece has a bump texture and is metallic pinky-purple.

I will try to get this and the other designs on the dichroic glass page of Designing-Diva Jewelry.
